An extrajudicial statement, if obtained in the course of violation of this chapter or which would be constitutionally inadmissible in a criminal proceeding, may not be used against a child. Evidence illegally seized or obtained may not be received over objection to establish the allegations made against a child. A confession validly made by a child out of court is insufficient to support an adjudication of delinquency unless the confession is corroborated in whole or in part by other evidence.","path":["Title 27 Judicial Branch Of Government","Chapter 27-20.2 Juvenile Court Act"],"source_url":"https://ndlegis.gov/cencode/t27c20-2.pdf","current_through":"2026-07-31T11:12:02","vintage":"","retrieved_at":"2026-09-02T21:04:14Z","sha256":"e76908b346f415a22d2f9f93a39804fa627e87396e0dbf7b4b333b3ee437d25c","source_id":"us-nd","stale":true,"prev":"us-nd/n.d.-cent.-code-27-20.2-12","next":"us-nd/n.d.-cent.-code-27-20.2-14"},"notice":"GroundRules: Original legal text.
