California Penal Code Section 707(b) pertains to the sentencing of juveniles who have committed certain serious offenses. It allows the court to impose a sentence that includes confinement in a juvenile facility, but emphasizes rehabilitation over punishment. This section is part of efforts to address juvenile delinquency while considering the developmental differences between minors and adults. The law reflects the belief that young offenders should have opportunities for reform.
