What determines if a child progresses to a dispositional hearing?

Consent or admission during arraignment
Denial of charges
Completion of a multidisciplinary assessment
Approval of the transition plan

The correct answer is: Consent or admission during arraignment

An arraignment is the first stage of a juvenile delinquency case, during which the child is informed of the charges against them and enters a plea of guilty or not guilty. If the child pleads guilty or no contest, the case may proceed directly to disposition. If the child pleads not guilty, the case may be set for a dispositional hearing where a judge will determine the appropriate consequences or treatment for the child. This means that A is the only option that directly addresses the arraignment and its role in determining the need for a dispositional hearing. B, C, and D do not necessarily relate to the arraignment or the decision to proceed to a dispositional hearing.
