offered as evidence at the hearing, it shall be filed with the518
court. Part or all of the deposition is admissible in evidence if519
counsel for all parties had an opportunity and similar motive at520
the time of the taking of the deposition to develop the testimony521

permit is so suspended or revoked is ineligible for issuance of a538
license or permit during the period of suspension or revocation.539

under divisions (A)(1), (3), (4), (5), and (7)(8) of section550

the time the child is attending the program, the court shall571

order of disposition to issue for the child.999

       (2) Each victim impact statement shall identify the victim1000
of the act for which the child was adjudicated a delinquent child,1001

psychological impact experienced by the victim or the victim's1007
family as a result of the act, and contain any other information1008
related to the impact of the act upon the victim that the court1009
requires.1010

       (3) A victim impact statement shall be kept confidential and1011

the statement to the department of youth services if the1013
delinquent child is committed to the department or to both the1014
adjudicated delinquent child or the adjudicated delinquent child's1015
counsel and the prosecuting attorney. The copy of a victim impact1016

       (E) If a child is adjudicated a delinquent child for being a1028
chronic truant or an habitual truant who previously has been1029
adjudicated an unruly child for being an habitual truant and the1030

care of the child has failed to cause the child's attendance at1032
school in violation of section 3321.38 of the Revised Code, in1033
addition to any order of disposition it makes under this section,1034
the court shall warn the parent, guardian, or other person having1035
care of the child that any subsequent adjudication of the child as1036
an unruly or delinquent child for being an habitual or chronic1037
truant may result in a criminal charge against the parent,1038
guardian, or other person having care of the child for a violation1039
of division (C) of section 2919.21 or section 2919.24 of the1040
Revised Code.1041

       (F)(1) During the period of a delinquent child's community1042

of the delinquent child, the place of residence of the delinquent1046
child, and a motor vehicle, another item of tangible or intangible1047
personal property, or other real property in which the delinquent1048
child has a right, title, or interest or for which the delinquent1049
child has the express or implied permission of a person with a1050

complying with the conditions of the delinquent child's community1054
control. The court that places a delinquent child on community1055
control under this section shall provide the delinquent child with1056
a written notice that informs the delinquent child that authorized1057
probation officers who are engaged within the scope of their1058
supervisory duties or responsibilities may conduct those types of1059
searches during the period of community control if they have1060
reasonable grounds to believe that the delinquent child is not1061
abiding by the law or otherwise is not complying with the1062
conditions of the delinquent child's community control. The court1063
also shall provide the written notice described in division (E)(2)1064
of this section to each parent, guardian, or custodian of the1065
delinquent child who is described in that division.1066

       (2) The court that places a child on community control under1067
this section shall provide the child's parent, guardian, or other1068
custodian with a written notice that informs them that authorized1069
probation officers may conduct searches pursuant to division1070
(E)(1) of this section. The notice shall specifically state that1071
a permissible search might extend to a motor vehicle, another item1072
of tangible or intangible personal property, or a place of1073
residence or other real property in which a notified parent,1074
guardian, or custodian has a right, title, or interest and that1075
the parent, guardian, or custodian expressly or impliedly permits1076
the child to use, occupy, or possess.1077

       (G) If a juvenile court commits a delinquent child to the1078

of disposition shall inform the person, organization, or entity1082
that it is the preferred course of action in this state that the1083
child be provided treatment as described in division (A)(2) of1084
section 5139.13 of the Revised Code and shall encourage the1085
person, organization, or entity to provide that treatment.1086

       Sec.  2152.21.  (A) Unless division (C) of this section1087

whose license or permit is so suspended is ineligible for issuance1096
of a license or permit during the period of suspension. At the1097
end of the period of suspension, the child shall not be reissued a1098

license reinstatement.1101

       (4) Require the child to make restitution for all damages1103
caused by the child's traffic violation;1104

diminished as a credit for any time that the child was held in a1124
place of detention or shelter care, or otherwise was detained,1125
prior to entry of the order of disposition.1126

       (6) If, after making a disposition under divisions (A)(1) to1127
(5) of this section, the court finds upon further hearing that the1128
child has failed to comply with the orders of the court and the1129

danger to the child and to others, the court may make any1131
disposition authorized by divisions (A)(1), (3), (4), (5), and1132
(7)(8) of section 2152.19 of the Revised Code, except that the1133
child may not be committed to or placed in a secure correctional1134

discretion of the court, until the child attends and1145
satisfactorily completes a drug abuse or alcohol abuse education,1146
intervention, or treatment program specified by the court. During1147
the time the child is attending the program, the court shall1148
retain any temporary instruction permit, probationary driver's1149
license, or driver's license issued to the child and shall return1150
the permit or license when the child satisfactorily completes the1151
program.1152

court may enter into a contract, subject to the approval of the1294
board of county commissioners, with another juvenile court,1295
another county's detention facility, or a joint county detention1296
facility. Alternately, the board of county commissioners shall1297
provide funds for the boarding of children, who would be1298
eligible for detention under division (A) of this section,1299
temporarily in private homes or in certified foster homes approved1300
by the court for a period not exceeding sixty days or until final1301

buildings, furniture, and equipment of the facility to any1318
counties in the district, at any price and upon any such terms1319
that are agreed upon among the boards of county commissioners of1320
the counties concerned. Section 307.10 of the Revised Code does1321

facility who are residents of a county withdrawing from the1326
district are deemed to have resigned their positions upon the1327
