The two juveniles, who were both charged with being carried in a conveyance without consent of the owner earlier that day faced Dubbo Children's Court in the late afternoon.

A plea of guilty was entered on behalf of one of the girls by a lawyer from the Aboriginal Legal Service.

Pleas of not guilty were offered to unrelated assault charges.

The girl sat in the dock, dressed in trackpants, as bail was sought on her behalf.

The prosecution said there were unacceptable risks of further offences being committed, endangering the community "especially in light of the most recent offence" and failure to appear.

The defence said none of the risks were conceded, and that the girl sought to live at an Orange address with her mother.

The teenager would receive a Centrelink payment the next day and then she would be able to travel to Orange on public transport.

For the one night she could be released to the address of a Dubbo woman present in the court, the defence said.

Magistrate Greg Grogin questioned if he was being asked to bail the girl back to the Orange address from where she had been in the morning prior to embarking on the "joy ride".

She was complicit in being carried in a conveyance without the owner's consent, he said.

The magistrate foreshadowed imposing a character acknowledgement to be given by the girl's mother as a condition of bail.

He was on the verge of granting bail when the court heard there would be a bail application from a co-accused involving the same Dubbo address.

Later both girls appeared side by side in the dock.

The second young person was subject to bonds and on bail for a number of offences that were not before the Dubbo court, a second lawyer from the Aboriginal Legal Service said.

The prosecution opposed bail.

The defence proposed the girl, 17, be bailed to the Dubbo address of her grandmother, who was in the court, subject to a number of conditions.

The magistrate said the facts before him were disturbing, with the young person being in a car that was stolen and driven to Wellington then Dubbo.

She was currently on three bonds for shoplifting and her record was littered with breaches of bail and call-up of bonds, he said.

There seemed to be an "arrogance" in the young person and he was not satisfied the risks could be mitigated, Mr Grogin said.

Bail was refused and the magistrate adjourned the matter until January 27 for plea or mention.

The magistrate then returned to the bail application for the first young person.

She was granted bail with conditions to live at a Dubbo address that night and then leave it to go directly to the Orange address of her mother, report daily to Orange police, that a character acknowledgement must be given and that she was not to associate any of the co-accused.

Her matters were adjourned to Orange Local Court on March 9.
