Education Code violations by a person under 17 may not be subject to arrest warrants.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Only if the offense occurred at school
• D. Only with parental consent

Answer: (A)

Education Code issues involving a person under 17 are handled through the juvenile justice and school-discipline pathways rather than as criminal matters that lead to arrest warrants. For minors, many school-related violations—like truancy or failures to meet attendance duties—are treated as civil or administrative concerns that are addressed by schools, parents, and the juvenile court rather than through issuing an arrest warrant. The goal is to involve guardians and authorities in ensuring compliance, not to arrest a young person for a school violation. Because of this framework, a minor under 17 may not be subject to an arrest warrant for Education Code violations. The enforcement does not hinge on where the offense occurred or on parental consent; it centers on the minor’s status and the nature of the violation within the juvenile system.
