But one of them who’s the main culprit he stabbed my friend which caused a lot of hospital trouble for 6 months, his case is going now in juvenile court.Can we will get the compensation money for hospital bills from the guy who stabbed him even he’s a juvenile. Please help. -

If JJ Board refuses to order compensation, then you will have to file a civil suit for damages.
In addition to this, you should also apply for compensation under the Victim Compensation Scheme of your state.
