sentence pursuant to K.S.A. 2007 Supp. 38-2367, and amendments

thereto, or violation of a condition of sentence pursuant to K.S.A. 2007

Supp. 38-2368, and amendments thereto, and subject to subsection (a)

of K.S.A. 2007 Supp. 38-2365, and amendments thereto, the court may

impose one or more of the following sentencing alternatives. In the event

that any sentencing alternative chosen constitutes an order authorizing or

requiring removal of the juvenile from the juvenile’s home and such find-

ings either have not previously been made or the findings are not or may

no longer be current, the court shall make determinations as required by

K.S.A. 2007 Supp. 38-2334 and 38-2335, and amendments thereto.

(1) Place the juvenile on probation through court services or com-

munity corrections for a fixed period, subject to terms and conditions the

court deems appropriate consistent with juvenile justice programs in the

community.

(2) Order the juvenile to participate in a community based program

available in such judicial district subject to the terms and conditions the

court deems appropriate. This alternative shall not be ordered with the

alternative in paragraph (12) and when ordered with the alternative in

paragraph (10) shall constitute a recommendation. Requirements per-

taining to child support may apply if custody is vested with other than a

parent.

(3) Place the juvenile in the custody of a parent or other suitable

person, subject to terms and conditions consistent with juvenile justice

programs in the community. This alternative shall not be ordered with

the alternative in paragraph (10) or (12). Requirements pertaining to child

support may apply if custody is vested with other than a parent.

(4) Order the juvenile to attend counseling, educational, mediation

Sub. SB 458

13

or other sessions, or to undergo a drug evaluation pursuant to subsection

(b).

(5) Suspend or restrict the juvenile’s driver’s license or privilege to

operate a motor vehicle on the streets and highways of this state pursuant

to subsection (c).

(6) Order the juvenile to perform charitable or community service

work.

(7) Order the juvenile to make appropriate reparation or restitution

pursuant to subsection (d).

( Order the juvenile to pay a fine not exceeding $1,000 pursuant to

(9) Place the juvenile under a house arrest program administered by

the court pursuant to K.S.A. 21-4603b, and amendments thereto.

(10) Place the juvenile in the custody of the commissioner as provided

in K.S.A. 2007 Supp. 38-2365, and amendments thereto. This alternative

shall not be ordered with the alternative in paragraph (3) or (12). Except

for a mandatory drug and alcohol evaluation, when this alternative is or-

dered with alternatives in paragraphs (2), (4) and (9), such orders shall

constitute a recommendation by the court. Requirements pertaining to

child support shall apply under this alternative.

(11) Commit the juvenile to a sanctions house for a period no longer

than 28 days subject to the provisions of subsection (f).

(12) Commit the juvenile directly to the custody of the commissioner

for a period of confinement in a juvenile correctional facility and a period

of aftercare pursuant to K.S.A. 2007 Supp. 38-2369, and amendments

thereto. The provisions of K.S.A. 2007 Supp. 38-2365, and amendments

thereto, shall not apply to juveniles committed pursuant to this provision.

This alternative may be ordered with the alternative in paragraph (7).

Requirements pertaining to child support shall apply under this

alternative.

(b) If the court orders the juvenile to attend counseling, educational,

mediation or other sessions, or to undergo a drug and alcohol evaluation

pursuant to subsection (a)(4), the following provisions apply:

(1) The court may order the juvenile offender to participate in coun-

seling or mediation sessions or a program of education, including place-

ment in an alternative educational program approved by a local school

board. The costs of any counseling or mediation may be assessed as ex-

penses in the case. No mental health center shall charge a fee for court-

ordered counseling greater than what the center would have charged the

person receiving the counseling if the person had requested counseling

on the person’s own initiative. No mediator shall charge a fee for court-

ordered mediation greater than what the mediator would have charged

the person participating in the mediation if the person had requested

Sub. SB 458

14

mediation on the person’s own initiative. Mediation may include the vic-

tim but shall not be mandatory for the victim; and

(2) if the juvenile has been adjudicated to be a juvenile by reason of

a violation of a statute that makes such a requirement, the court shall

order and, if adjudicated for any other offense, the court may order the

juvenile to submit to and complete a drug and alcohol evaluation by a

community-based drug and alcohol safety action program certified pur-

suant to K.S.A. 8-1008, and amendments thereto, and to pay a fee not to

exceed the fee established by that statute for such evaluation. The court

may waive the mandatory evaluation if the court finds that the juvenile

completed a drug and alcohol evaluation, approved by the community-

based alcohol and drug safety action program, within 12 months before

sentencing. If the evaluation occurred more than 12 months before sen-

tencing, the court shall order the juvenile to resubmit to and complete

the evaluation and program as provided herein. If the court finds that the

juvenile and those legally liable for the juvenile’s support are indigent,

the court may waive the fee. In no event shall the fee be assessed against

the commissioner or the juvenile justice authority nor shall the fee be

assessed against the secretary of social and rehabilitation services or the

department of social and rehabilitation services if the juvenile is in the

secretary’s care, custody and control.

(c) If the court orders suspension or restriction of a juvenile of-

fender’s driver’s license or privilege to operate a motor vehicle on the

streets and highways of this state pursuant to subsection (a)(5), the fol-

lowing provisions apply:

(1) The duration of the suspension ordered by the court shall be for

a definite time period to be determined by the court. Upon suspension

of a license pursuant to this subsection, the court shall require the juvenile

offender to surrender the license to the court. The court shall transmit

the license to the division of motor vehicles of the department of revenue,

to be retained until the period of suspension expires. At that time, the

licensee may apply to the division for return of the license. If the license

has expired, the juvenile offender may apply for a new license, which shall

be issued promptly upon payment of the proper fee and satisfaction of

other conditions established by law for obtaining a license unless another

suspension or revocation of the juvenile offender’s privilege to operate a

motor vehicle is in effect. As used in this subsection, ‘‘highway’’ and

‘‘street’’ have the meanings provided by K.S.A. 8-1424 and 8-1473, and

amendments thereto. Any juvenile offender who does not have a driver’s

license may have driving privileges revoked. No Kansas driver’s license

shall be issued to a juvenile offender whose driving privileges have been

revoked pursuant to this section for a definite time period to be deter-

mined by the court; and

Sub. SB 458

15

(2) in lieu of suspending a juvenile offender’s driver’s license or priv-

ilege to operate a motor vehicle on the highways of this state, the court

may enter an order which places conditions on the juvenile offender’s

privilege of operating a motor vehicle on the streets and highways of this

state, a certified copy of which the juvenile offender shall be required to

carry any time the juvenile offender is operating a motor vehicle on the

streets and highways of this state. The order shall prescribe a definite

time period for the conditions imposed. Upon entering an order restrict-

ing a juvenile offender’s license, the court shall require the juvenile of-

fender to surrender such juvenile offender’s license to the court. The

court shall transmit the license to the division of vehicles, together with

a copy of the order. Upon receipt thereof, the division of vehicles shall

issue without charge a driver’s license which shall indicate on its face that

conditions have been imposed on the juvenile offender’s privilege of op-

erating a motor vehicle and that a certified copy of the order imposing

the conditions is required to be carried by the juvenile offender when

operating a motor vehicle on the streets and highways of this state. If the

juvenile offender is a nonresident, the court shall cause a copy of the

order to be transmitted to the division and the division shall forward a

copy of it to the motor vehicle administrator of the juvenile offender’s

state of issuance. The court shall furnish to any juvenile offender whose

driver’s license has had conditions imposed on it under this section a copy

of the order, which shall be recognized as a valid Kansas driver’s license

until the division issues the restricted license provided for in this subsec-

tion. Upon expiration of the period of time for which conditions are im-

posed pursuant to this subsection, the juvenile offender may apply to the

division for the return of the license previously surrendered by the ju-

venile offender. In the event the license has expired, the juvenile offender

may apply to the division for a new license, which shall be issued im-

mediately by the division upon payment of the proper fee and satisfaction

of the other conditions established by law unless such juvenile offender’s

privilege to operate a motor vehicle on the streets and highways of this

state has been suspended or revoked prior thereto. If any juvenile of-

fender violates any of the conditions imposed under this subsection, the

juvenile offender’s driver’s license or privilege to operate a motor vehicle

on the streets and highways of this state shall be revoked for a period as

determined by the court in which the juvenile offender is convicted of

violating such conditions.

(d) The following provisions apply to the court’s determination of

whether to order reparation or restitution pursuant to subsection (a)(7):

(1) The court shall order the juvenile to make reparation or restitu-

tion to the aggrieved party for the damage or loss caused by the juvenile

offender’s offense unless it finds compelling circumstances that would

Sub. SB 458

16

render a plan of reparation or restitution unworkable. If the court finds

compelling circumstances that would render a plan of reparation or res-

titution unworkable, the court shall enter such findings with particularity

on the record. In lieu of reparation or restitution, the court may order

the juvenile to perform charitable or social service for organizations per-

forming services for the community; and

(2) restitution may include, but shall not be limited to, the amount

of damage or loss caused by the juvenile’s offense. Restitution may be

made by payment of an amount fixed by the court or by working for the

parties sustaining loss in the manner ordered by the court. An order of

monetary restitution shall be a judgment against the juvenile that may be

collected by the court by garnishment or other execution as on judgments

in civil cases. Such judgment shall not be affected by the termination of

the court’s jurisdiction over the juvenile offender.

(e) If the court imposes a fine pursuant to subsection (a)(8), the fol-

lowing provisions apply:

(1) The amount of the fine may not exceed $1,000 for each offense.

The amount of the fine should be related to the seriousness of the offense

and the juvenile’s ability to pay. Payment of a fine may be required in a

lump sum or installments;

(2) in determining whether to impose a fine and the amount to be

imposed, the court shall consider that imposition of a fine is most appro-

priate in cases where the juvenile has derived pecuniary gain from the

offense and that imposition of a restitution order is preferable to impo-

sition of a fine; and

(3) any fine imposed by court shall be a judgment against the juvenile

that may be collected by the court by garnishment or other execution as

on judgments in civil cases. Such judgment shall not be affected by the

termination of the court’s jurisdiction over the juvenile.

(f) If the court commits the juvenile to a sanctions house pursuant to

subsection (a)(11), the following provisions shall apply:

(1) The court may order commitment for up to 28 days for the same

offense or violation of sentencing condition. The court shall review the

commitment every seven days and, may shorten the initial commitment

or, if the initial term is less than 28 days, may extend the commitment;

(2) if, in the sentencing order, the court orders a sanctions house

placement for a verifiable probation violation and such probation violation

occurs, the juvenile may immediately be taken to a sanctions house and

detained for no more than 48 hours, excluding Saturdays, Sundays and

holidays, prior to court review of the placement. The court and all parties

shall be notified of the sanctions house placement; and

(3) a juvenile over 18 years of age and less than 23 years of age at

sentencing shall be committed to a county jail, in lieu of a sanctions house,

Sub. SB 458

17

under the same time restrictions imposed by paragraph (1), but shall not

be committed to or confined in a juvenile detention facility.

(g) Any order issued by the judge pursuant to this section shall be in

effect immediately upon entry into the court’s minutes.

(h) In addition to the requirements of K.S.A. 2007 Supp. 38-2373,

and amendments thereto, if a person is under 18 years of age and con-

victed of a felony or adjudicated as a juvenile offender for an offense if

committed by an adult would constitute the commission of a felony, the

court shall forward a signed copy of the journal entry to the commissioner

within 30 days of final disposition.

(i) Except as further provided, if a juvenile has been adjudged to be

a juvenile offender for an offense that if committed by an adult would

fined in K.S.A. 2007 Supp. 21-3447, and amendments thereto, if the vic-

tim is less than 14 years of age; (2) rape, as defined in subsection (a)(2)

of K.S.A. 21-3502, and amendments thereto; (3) aggravated indecent lib-

erties with a child, as defined in subsection (a)(3) of K.S.A. 21-3504, and

amendments thereto; (4) aggravated criminal sodomy, as defined in sub-

section (a)(1) or (a)(2) of K.S.A. 21-3506, and amendments thereto; (5)

promoting prostitution, as defined in K.S.A. 21-3513, and amendments

thereto, if the prostitute is less than 14 years of age; (6) sexual exploitation

of a child, as defined in subsection (a)(5) or (a)(6) of K.S.A. 21-3516, and

amendments thereto; or (7) an attempt, conspiracy or criminal solicita-

tion, as defined in K.S.A. 21-3301, 21-3302 or 21-3303, and amendments

thereto, of an offense defined in parts (1) through (6); the court shall

issue an order prohibiting the juvenile from attending the attendance

center that the victim of the offense attends. If only one attendance center

exists, for which the victim and juvenile are eligible to attend, in the school

district where the victim and the juvenile reside, the court shall hear

testimony and take evidence from the victim, the juvenile, their families

and a representative of the school district as to why the juvenile should

or should not be allowed to remain at the attendance center attended by

the victim. After such hearing, the court may issue an order prohibiting

the juvenile from attending the attendance center that the victim of the

offense attends.

(j) The sentencing hearing shall be open to the public as provided in

K.S.A. 2007 Supp. 38-2353, and amendments thereto.
