Juvenile. Reverses the Cass Circuit Court’s denial of the state’s request for authorization to file a delinquency petition against 18-year-old B.H. based on an act he allegedly committed when he was 17.

Also finds the state did meet the deadlines for seeking an interlocutory appeal and while this is not actually an interlocutory appeal, both the juvenile court and the Court of Appeals treated it as an interlocutory appeal and allowed the state to bring such an appeal.
