THE DETROIT JEWISH NEWS
Ex-Detroiter Rena Uviller
Wins in Supreme Court Case
Former Detroiter Rena K. Uvil-
ler recently argued and won a
case before the United States Su-
preme Court that set a new prece-
dent in the handling of juvenile
cases.
Mrs..
is the daughter of
Detroiters Mr. and Mrs. Joseph
Katz and the .brother of Norman
D. Katz of the Katz, Victor and
Yolles law firm in Southfield. She
is a former columnist of The Jew-
ish News.
Through the Legal Aid Society
of New York, Mrs. Uviller repre-
sented a juvenile who had been
convicted on what is known as a
"proponderance of the evidence."
Prior to this case, the traditional
view had been that juvenile pro-
ceedings are not criminal but are
designed to rehabilitate the juven-
ile.
Instead of applying the adult
criminal procedure that the de-
KOSHER & PARVE
MARGARINE
fendant is presumed innocent
until proven guilty, a juvenile
could be convicted on a lower
standard of proof—"preponder-
ance of the evidence."
According to the precedent set
by this case, a conviction of a
juvenile requires proof "beyond a
reasonable doubt."
Although the original type of
proceedings were conceived to re-
habilitate young offenders and pro-
tect them from the stigma of a
criminal record, judges have sent
delinquent youths to understaffed
reform schools for terms far long-
er than the jail sentence that
adults would have received for
smaller offenses. Juveniles were
actually being jailed and deprived
of their liberty without serious
attempts at rehabilitation.
The juvenile criminal defendant
was given the constitutional pro-
tections of an adult for due pro-
cess, in an opinion written by Jus-
tice Brennen and concurred in by
Justices Douglas, Harlan, Mar-
shall and White. Justices Burger,
Stewart and Black dissented.
The case was reported on na-
tional radio and television, was
the subject of a New York Times
editorial and was mentioned in
Time Magazine.
