See perldoc perlop for Equality Operators. I believe:

if ($field_100 && (($fic eq '1') and ($juvie eq 'j'))) {
Also, the parens aren't necessary:
if ($field_100 and $fix eq '1' and $juvie eq 'j')
Or equivalently:
if ($field_100 && $fix eq '1' && $juvie eq 'j')
Or equivalently (not that I would recommend this syntax):
if ($field_100 && $fix eq '1' and $juvie eq 'j')
This is because 'a eq b' expressions are evaluated before 'c && d' expressions, which are evaluated before 'e and f' expressions.
