938.357(5)(e)
(e) If the hearing examiner finds that the juvenile has violated a condition of aftercare supervision, the hearing examiner shall determine whether confinement in a secured correctional facility, a secured child caring institution or a secured group home is necessary to protect the public, to provide for the juvenile's rehabilitation or to not depreciate the seriousness of the violation.
938.357(5)(f)
(f) Review of a revocation decision shall be by certiorari to the court by whose order the juvenile was placed in a secured correctional facility, a secured child caring institution or a secured group home.
938.357(5)(g)

s. 938.357, the duty of the parent or guardian to provide support shall continue even though the legal custodian or the placement designee may provide the support. A copy of the order transferring custody or designating alternative placement for the juvenile shall be submitted to the agency or person receiving custody or placement and the agency or person may apply to the court for an order to compel the parent or guardian to provide the support. Support payments for residential services, when purchased or otherwise funded or provided by the department of corrections, or a county department under

46.22 or
46.23, shall be determined under
s. 301.12 (14). Support payments for residential services, when purchased or otherwise funded by the department of health and family services, or a county department under

s. 49.22 (2m) to the department of workforce development, or the county child support agency, under
s. 59.53 (5). If the court has insufficient information with which to determine the amount of support, the court shall order the juvenile's parent to furnish a statement of income, assets, debts and living expenses, if the parent has not already done so, to the court within 10 days after the court's order transferring custody or designating an alternative placement is entered or at such other time as ordered by the court.
938.36(2)
(2) If a juvenile whose legal custody has not been taken from a parent or guardian is given educational and social services, or medical, psychological or psychiatric treatment by order of the court, the cost thereof, if ordered by the court, shall be a charge upon the county. This section does not prevent recovery of reasonable contribution toward the costs from the parent or guardian of the juvenile as the court may order based on the ability of the parent or guardian to pay. This subsection is subject to
s. 301.03 (18).

s. 938.355 that placed a juvenile in detention, nonsecure custody or inpatient treatment under
s. 938.34 (3) (f) or
(6) (am) may be extended. No other order under
s. 938.355 may be extended except as provided in this section.
938.365(2)

The court shall notify the juvenile or the juvenile's guardian ad litem or counsel, the juvenile's parent, guardian, legal custodian, all of the parties present at the original hearing, the juvenile's foster parent, treatment foster parent or other physical custodian described in
s. 48.62 (2), and the district attorney or corporation counsel in the county in which the dispositional order was entered of the time and place of the hearing.

The office of juvenile offender review may file a written report regarding any juvenile examined by the program.
938.365(2g)(b)
(b) If the juvenile is placed outside of his or her home, the report shall include all of the following:
938.365(2g)(b)1.
1. A copy of the report of the review panel under

938.365(2g)(b)3.
3. If the juvenile has been placed outside of his or her home for 15 of the most recent 22 months, a statement of whether or not a recommendation has been made to terminate the parental rights of the parents of the juvenile. If a recommendation for a termination of parental rights has been made, the statement shall indicate the date on which the recommendation was made, any previous progress made to accomplish the termination of parental rights, any barriers to the termination of parental rights, specific steps to overcome the barriers and when the steps will be completed, reasons why adoption would be in the best interest of the juvenile and whether or not the juvenile should be registered with the adoption information exchange. If a recommendation for termination of parental rights has not been made, the statement shall include an explanation of the reasons why a recommendation for termination of parental rights has not been made. If the lack of appropriate adoptive resources is the primary reason for not recommending a termination of parental rights, the agency shall recommend that the juvenile be registered with the adoption information exchange or report the reason why registering the juvenile is contrary to the best interest of the juvenile.
938.365(2g)(c)
(c) In cases where the juvenile has not been placed outside the home, the report shall contain a description of efforts that have been made by all parties concerned toward meeting the objectives of treatment, care or rehabilitation, an explanation of why these efforts have not yet succeeded in meeting the objective, and anticipated future planning for the juvenile.
938.365(2m)(a)(a) Any party may present evidence relevant to the issue of extension. The court shall make findings of fact and conclusions of law based on the evidence. Subject to
s. 938.355 (2d), the findings of fact shall include a finding as to whether reasonable efforts were made by the agency primarily responsible for providing services to the juvenile to make it possible for the juvenile to return safely to his or her home. An order shall be issued under
s. 938.355.
938.365(2m)(ag)

Any written or oral statement made under this paragraph shall be made under oath or affirmation. A foster parent, treatment foster parent or other physical custodian described in
s. 48.62 (2) who receives notice of a hearing under
sub. (2) and an opportunity to be heard under this paragraph does not become a party to the proceeding on which the hearing is held solely on the basis of receiving that notice and opportunity to be heard.

938.365(6)
(6) If a request to extend a dispositional order is made prior to the termination of the order, but the court is unable to conduct a hearing on the request prior to the termination date, the court may extend the order for a period of not more than 30 days, not including any period of delay resulting from any of the circumstances specified in
s. 938.315 (1). The court shall grant appropriate relief as provided in
s. 938.315 (3) with respect to any request to extend a dispositional order on which a hearing is not held within the time limit specified in this subsection. Failure to object if a hearing is not held within the time limit specified in this subsection waives that time limit.
938.365(7)
(7) Nothing in this section may be construed to allow any changes in placement or revocation of aftercare supervision. Revocation and other changes in placement may take place only under
s. 938.357.
