21in this paragraph

(8) Forfeiture. Impose a forfeiture based upon a determination that
11this disposition is in the best interest of the juvenile and in aid of rehabilitation. The
12maximum forfeiture that the court may impose under this subsection for a violation
13by a juvenile is the maximum amount of the fine that may be imposed on an adult
14for committing that violation or, if the violation is applicable only to a
juvenile person
15under 18 years of age, $100. Any such order shall include a finding that the juvenile
16alone is financially able to pay the forfeiture and shall allow up to 12 months for
17payment. If the juvenile fails to pay the forfeiture, the court may vacate the forfeiture
18and order other alternatives under this section, in accordance with the conditions
19specified in this subchapter; or the court may suspend any license issued under ch.
2029 for not less than 30 days nor more than 5 years, or suspend the juvenile's operating
21privilege as defined in s. 340.01 (40) for not less than 30 days nor more than 5 years.
22If the court suspends any license under this subsection, the clerk of the court shall
23immediately take possession of the suspended license and forward it to the
24department which issued the license, together with a notice of suspension clearly
25stating that the suspension is for failure to pay a forfeiture imposed by the court. If
1the forfeiture is paid during the period of suspension, the suspension shall be reduced
2to the time period which has already elapsed and the court shall immediately notify
3the department which shall then return the license to the juvenile.

7enter an additional order staying the execution of the dispositional order contingent
8on the juvenile's satisfactory compliance with any conditions that are specified in the

10a condition of his or her dispositional order, the agency supervising the juvenile shall
11notify the court and the court shall hold a hearing within 30 days after the filing of
12the notice to determine whether the original disposition order should be imposed,
13unless the juvenile signs a written waiver of any objections to imposing the original
14dispositional order and the court approves the waiver. If a hearing is held, the court
15shall notify the parent, juvenile, guardian and legal custodian, all parties bound by
16the original dispositional order and the district attorney or corporation counsel in the
17county in which the dispositional order was entered at the time and place of the
18hearing at least 3 days before the hearing. If all parties consent, the court may
19proceed immediately with the hearing. The court may not impose the original
20dispositional order unless the court finds
to a reasonable certainty by the greater
21weight by a preponderance of the
credible evidence that the juvenile has violated a
22condition of his or her dispositional order.
