parental rights were terminated cease to be parties to the action491
upon the issuance of the order. This division is not intended to492

permanent custody order issued pursuant to division (A)(4) of494
section 2151.353 of the Revised Code.495

proponent of the statement informs the adverse party of the501
proponent's intention to offer the statement and of the502
particulars of the statement, including the name of the declarant,503

       If a deposition taken under this division is intended to be523
offered as evidence at the hearing, it shall be filed with the524
court. Part or all of the deposition is admissible in evidence if525
counsel for all parties had an opportunity and similar motive at526
the time of the taking of the deposition to develop the testimony527
by direct, cross, or redirect examination and the judge determines528
that there is reasonable cause to believe that if the child were529
to testify in person at the hearing, the child would experience530
emotional trauma as a result of participating at the hearing.531

       Sec. 2151.354.  (A) If the child is adjudicated an unruly532

driver's license, or temporary instruction permit issued to the543
child and suspend or revoke the registration of all motor vehicles544

under divisions (A)(1), (3), (4), (5), and (7)(8) of section561

satisfactorily completes a drug abuse or alcohol abuse education,577
intervention, or treatment program specified by the court. During578
the time the child is attending the program, the court shall579
retain any temporary instruction permit, probationary driver's580

delinquent child is not abiding by the law or otherwise is not1070
complying with the conditions of the delinquent child's community1071
control. The court that places a delinquent child on community1072
control under this section shall provide the delinquent child with1073
a written notice that informs the delinquent child that authorized1074
probation officers who are engaged within the scope of their1075
supervisory duties or responsibilities may conduct those types of1076
searches during the period of community control if they have1077
reasonable grounds to believe that the delinquent child is not1078

board of county commissioners, with another juvenile court,1331
another county's detention facility, or a joint county detention1332
facility. Alternately, the board of county commissioners shall1333
provide funds for the boarding of children, who would be1334
eligible for detention under division (A) of this section,1335
temporarily in private homes or in certified foster homes approved1336
by the court for a period not exceeding sixty days or until final1337

may arrange with any public children services agency or private1339
child placing agency to receive, or private noncustodial agency1340
for temporary care of, children within the jurisdiction of the1341
court.1342

       If the court arranges for the board of children temporarily1343
detained in certified foster homes or through any private child1344
placing agency, the county shall pay a reasonable sum to be fixed1345
by the court for the board of those children. In order to have1346

buildings, furniture, and equipment of the facility to any1354
counties in the district, at any price and upon any such terms1355
that are agreed upon among the boards of county commissioners of1356
the counties concerned. Section 307.10 of the Revised Code does1357
not apply to this division. The net proceeds of any sale or lease1358
under this division shall be paid into the treasury of the1359
withdrawing county.1360

facility who are residents of a county withdrawing from the1362
district are deemed to have resigned their positions upon the1363
completion of the withdrawal procedure provided by this division.1364
The vacancies then created shall be filled as provided in this1365
section.1366

department of youth services, the director of youth services shall1390
cause the DNA specimen to be collected from the child during the1391

operation, finds that the composites are the resulting versions of1587
the sections in effect prior to the effective date of the sections1588
as presented in Section 1 of this act.1589

       Section 4. That the versions of sections 2151.354, 2152.19,1590

license or permit is so suspended is ineligible for issuance of a1608
license or permit during the period of suspension. At the end of1609
the period of suspension, the child shall not be reissued a1610

any act that, if committed by an adult, would be a drug abuse1627
offense, as defined in section 2925.01 of the Revised Code, or a1628
violation of division (B) of section 2917.11 of the Revised Code,1629

order requiring the child to participate in a truancy prevention1668
mediation program.1669

       (2) If a child is adjudicated an unruly child for being an1670

person having care of the child that any subsequent adjudication1686
of the child as an unruly or delinquent child for being an1687

the parent, guardian, or other person having care of the child for1689
a violation of division (C) of section 2919.21 or section 2919.241690
of the Revised Code.1691

the court shall warn the parent, guardian, or other person having1930
care of the child that any subsequent adjudication of the child as1931

child has a right, title, or interest or for which the delinquent1944
child has the express or implied permission of a person with a1945

complying with the conditions of the delinquent child's community1949
control. The court that places a delinquent child on community1950
control under this section shall provide the delinquent child with1951
a written notice that informs the delinquent child that authorized1952
probation officers who are engaged within the scope of their1953
supervisory duties or responsibilities may conduct those types of1954
searches during the period of community control if they have1955
reasonable grounds to believe that the delinquent child is not1956
