Connecticut General Statutes Title 46B. Family Law § 46b-125. Juvenile probation officers and juvenile matters investigators. Rights in retirement system. Duties and authority

Juvenile probation officers shall investigate and submit reports and recommendations to the court, including predispositional studies in accordance with section 46b-134. Juvenile probation officers shall provide supervision and make referrals to preadjudication and postadjudication services based on the juvenile's risks and needs, as determined by the risk and needs assessment. Juvenile probation officers shall work collaboratively with treatment providers to ensure programs and services are adequately addressing the needs of juveniles under supervision. They shall execute the orders of the court; and, for that purpose, such probation officers, and any other employees specifically designated by the court to assist the probation officers in the enforcement of such orders, shall have the authority of a state marshal. They shall keep records of all cases investigated or coming under their care, and shall keep informed concerning the conduct and condition of each juvenile placed under supervision and report thereon to the court as the court may direct. Any juvenile probation officer authorized by the Office of the Chief Court Administrator may arrest any juvenile on probation without a warrant or may deputize any other officer with power to arrest to do so by giving such officer a written statement setting forth that the juvenile has, in the judgment of the juvenile probation officer, violated the conditions of the juvenile's probation. When executing such orders of the court, except when using deadly physical force, juvenile probation officers and juvenile matters investigators shall be deemed to be acting in the capacity of a peace officer, as defined in subdivision (9) of section 53a-3.
