Learn some of the ins and outs of working with the probation officers; how to avoid conditions of probation that your client cannot meet; how to work with probation to avoid revocation hearings even if your client is not fully compliant with the terms and what to do when the revocation notice issues; tactics and tips on how to defend and advocate for the continued release of your client.

Kenneth J. King

KENNETH J. KING is a clinical supervisor and practitioner in residence at Suffolk University Law School’s Juvenile Justice Center. Mr. King is a graduate of the University of Illinois at Champaign-Urbana, and Northeastern University Law School. From 1980 to 1982, Ken was an Assistant Regional Counsel for the Department of Social Services (DSS) representing the Commonwealth in child welfare cases in the Juvenile and Probate Courts in Bristol County. In 1982, Ken left DSS and formed a private practice where he conducted many child-related cases until 1995 when he became the Attorney-in-Charge of the Salem Massachusetts Office of the Children and Family Law Program (CAFL), a division of the Committee for Public Counsel Services (CPCS.) He left CPCS in December 1998 to join the Juvenile Justice Center at Suffolk University Law School. In May 2000 Ken was honored with the CPCS Blitzman Award for extraordinary commitment to protection of the rights of juveniles. From January through May 2004 he was a Fulbright Scholar at the University of Turku Faculty of Law in Turku, Finland. While in Finland, King taught US Constitutional Criminal Procedure and US Criminal Trial Practice, while also lecturing on US juvenile law and procedure and researching the Finnish juvenile justice and child welfare systems. Ken’s research in Finland has resulted in one article to date, “Child Welfare in Finland: Are Families Sacrificed on the Altar of Administrative Procedure”, which was published in Defensor Legis (Sep 2004), the journal of the Finnish Bar Association. Throughout King’s practice he has concentrated on the representation of children and parents in the juvenile court as well as criminal defense at the trial and appellate levels. King has developed an expertise in issues relating to the legality of searches in schools and the interrogation of juveniles. Commonwealth v. Damian D., 434 Mass. 725 (2001) and Commonwealth v. Alfonso A., 438 Mass. 373 (2003)— two cases that Ken and his students have litigated in the Juvenile Justice Center clinic—resulted in decisions from the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court that provide greater protection for juveniles in school and the interrogation room respectively. King has also authored An Overview of the Law of Searches by School Administrators which has been published in American Bar Association and Massachusetts Continuing Legal Education training bulletins. He has also prepared outlines on the law of juvenile Miranda waivers and defending probation violations in juvenile court which have been used extensively for the training of students and lawyers. |
