The laws vary by state, but generally, if a minor is at least 16, he or she may serve the entire term in Juvenile Hall only if the term will end before he or she reaches age 21. If a child's term will extend past the age of 21, then the minor could be in Juvenile Hall until age 18, and then would automatically be transferred to adult jail on his or her 18th birthday. Basically, someone can stay in Juvenile Hall until his or her 21st birthday.

How young is the youngest age to go to juvenile hall?

If you are 10 or under and commit a serious crime the parent will have to serve time or pay a fine or the child will have to perform community service. The age 11 and up is when you can go to juvenil detention and (possibly) if a 11 year old commits a serious crime they will go to a juvenile hall until 17 then shipped either to jail or if more serious to the penitentiay.
