Methods of the Research: Type of research: Juridical Empirical, Data Sources include primary data and secondary data. Techniques for reviewing and collecting primary and secondary data are using literature studies and interview results. Data analysis used in legal research is qualitative analysis. Results Originality Findings of the Research: Based on the results of the study, it was found that the urgency of a community research report in imposing sanctions on children who commit criminal acts is an important matter. Community research reports that are made basically have an influence on the judge's decision in juvenile court. With the availability of community research reports, it can be used as consideration for judges in making their decisions as regulated in Article 60 Paragraph (3) of Law Number 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Criminal Justice System. Furthermore, if the judge does not consider the community research report from the Community Counselor, the legal consequences arising from the decision on the child who commits the crime are null and void, as referred to in Article 60 Paragraph (4) of Law Number 11 of 2012 concerning the Juvenile Criminal Justice System.
