LA County enforces juvenile curfew provisions for unincorporated areas. Minors under 18 are generally prohibited from public places during late-night hours. The LA County Sheriff's Department handles enforcement in unincorporated communities like East LA, Willowbrook, and Altadena.
LA County's juvenile curfew ordinance (Title 13 Chapter 13.57) applies to unincorporated areas. Minors under 18 may not be in public places between 10:00 PM and 6:00 AM Sunday through Thursday, and 12:01 AM to 6:00 AM Friday and Saturday nights. Exceptions include minors accompanied by a parent or guardian, traveling to or from work, attending supervised activities, or exercising First Amendment rights. Parents who knowingly allow curfew violations may also be cited.
First curfew violation results in a warning notice to the parent/guardian. Second violation within 12 months: $250 fine to the parent. Third and subsequent violations: $500-$1,000 fine. Minors may be detained and released to parents. Repeat violations may trigger referral to the Department of Children and Family Services for assessment.
