The three cases that I chose to believe that have been the most important in the development and evolution of juvenile justice are In re Gault in 1967, Breed versus Jones in 1975 and Schall versus Martin in 1984. I have chosen these three cases because, no individual should be tried twice for the same crime in multiple courts.

What is exactly freedom of speech and are we, as Americans, truly free to say what we want? What are the limitations if we do not have true freedom? Even though, we value freedom of speech for four main reasons, it is up to us how far should our freedom should extend and that there are a few limitations to our right to freedom of speech.
