Section 19-7-313 - Continuing jurisdiction(1) The court has continuing jurisdiction over the participating youth until any of the following occurs: (a) The participating youth moves the court, at any time, to withdraw the youth's participation in the transition program and to terminate the court's jurisdiction. The court shall hold an emancipation discharge hearing within thirty-five days after receipt of the participating youth's motion to review the participating youth's emancipation transition plan and advise the participating youth as provided in section 19-7-310.(b) A county department moves the court at least ninety days prior to a participating youth's twenty-first birthday, or such greater age of foster care eligibility as required by federal law, to request an emancipation discharge hearing be held prior to the last day of the month in which the participating youth turns twenty-one years of age. The court shall hold an emancipation discharge hearing to review the participating youth's emancipation transition plan and advise the participating youth as provided in section 19-7-310.(c) A county department moves the court to terminate a participating youth's voluntary services agreement and the court's jurisdiction because the participating youth no longer meets the eligibility requirements described in section 19-7-304 for the transition program. The county department shall include in the motion its efforts to reengage the participating youth, including: (I) The provision of written notice to the participating youth in a clear and developmentally appropriate manner that informs the participating youth of the county department's intent to request that the court terminate the participating youth's voluntary services agreement with an explanation of the reasons; and(II) Documentation of the county department's reasonable efforts to meet in person with the participating youth to explain the information in the written termination notice and to assist the participating youth in reestablishing eligibility if the participating youth wishes to continue to participate in the transition program.(2) The court shall hold the emancipation discharge hearing pursuant to subsection (1)(c) of this section at least thirty-five days after receipt of the county department's motion to determine whether the participating youth still meets the eligibility requirements for the transition program, including substantially fulfilling the participating youth's obligations set forth in the participating youth's voluntary services agreement. If the participating youth no longer meets the requirements of the transition program and the county department has made reasonable but unsuccessful efforts to reengage the participating youth, then the court shall hold an emancipation discharge hearing to review the participating youth's emancipation transition plan and advise the participating youth as provided in section 19-7-310. The court may accomplish all of these elements in the same emancipation discharge hearing if all of the necessary information has been filed in a timely fashion.Amended by 2022 Ch. 88, § 14, eff. 8/10/2022.Added by 2021 Ch. 340, § 1, eff. 6/25/2021.L. 2021: Entire part added, (HB 21-1094), ch. 2211, p. 2211, § 1, effective June 25. 2022 Ch. 88, was passed without a safety clause.
