A PINS petition in New York State stands for "Persons in Need of Supervision." It is a legal proceeding initiated by a parent, guardian, or other interested party to request court intervention for a minor (typically ages 7 to 18) who is exhibiting uncontrollable behavior, such as running away, being habitually truant, or engaging in other behaviors that may endanger their well-being. The goal of a PINS petition is to provide support and services to the youth and their family, rather than punitive measures. If the court finds the minor to be in need of supervision, it may order various interventions or services to address the underlying issues.

Can you have a PINS petitions if you are over 16 years of age?

(PINS = Person In Need of Supervison): What, exactly, is the question? Need more information. Do you want to know if YOU can submit a PINS petition against someone else -or- are you asking if someone can file a PINS petition AGAINST you? You don't give your state, so we don't know if you are of an age of emancipation in your state or not. Please give more info and re-submit the question.
