What is the name of your state? Florida
I'm a bit confused. I was under the impression that a minor needed a parent present or at least parental consent when being questioned. Apparently, it's not?
But, a minor can invoke his parent as his counsel. Or, at least that's how I'm interpreting what I've read.
So my question is how does a minor do this? Is asking to speak to his mother sufficient? Would he need to say, "I'm invoking my mother as counsel." How is this right invoked?
