In Law Number 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Criminal Justice System, Diversion
is an important part in the implementation of Juvenile Criminal Justice. Diversion is an action or
treatment to divert a case from a formal process to an informal process, or to place the perpetrators
of child crimes out of the juvenile justice system. This means that not all cases of juvenile
delinquents must be resolved through formal courts, and provide an alternative for settlement with
a justice approach in the best interests of the child and by considering justice for the victim.
However, in Pelalawan Regency there are still many cases of crimes committed by children which
end in criminal decisions at the Pelalawan District Court. The purpose of writing this thesis,
