In Patching Up the Cracks sociologist Michael D. Grimes conducts a case study of the dependency portion of a "troubled" juvenile court. His study uncovers the importance of the larger institutional and social environment that surrounds the court—both its day-to-day operations and its capacity to adequately serve the needs of its clients.
