Beijing High People's Court established a specialist court, with experienced judges, to comprehensively handle juvenile cases, criminal and civil, in April.

It is the first courtroom specifically set up to deal with minors in the high people's courts, according to Zhao Deyun, presiding judge of the juvenile department with the court.

More than 130 judges have been assigned to handle minor cases in the capital's courts and 40 percent have been engaged in juvenile work over five years.
