Hypothetical 2: Jamie and his friend Pat are both 17 years old. They are caught driving a car they took without permission. Jamie turns 18 one week after his arraignment. Pat is found guilty at his adjudicatory hearing (trial) and, based on his prior adjudications, the court orders that he spend 20 weeks in confinement. After Pat has spent 8 weeks in confinement, he turns 18.

1. Can Jamie's adjudicatory hearing (trial) take place in Juvenile Court?

2. Will Pat be transferred from the detention facility at the time he turns 18?
