North Carolina Sex Laws
North Carolina
If a boy 17 yrs of age, had sex with his girlfried who was 3 days away from her 15th birthday are there possible charges. This was a "consentual" yet stupid act. And what evidence would be neccessary to file charges. There could be action taken through the juvenile justice system based on current state laws. Any action or penalty would be determined by a juvenile court judge. In the case of a pregnancy, a judge could rule that it be moved to adult court. aside from pregnancy, other evidence a judge might consider would be if they were "caught in the act" or someone witnessed the two of you together.
