38-2368. Violation of condition of probation or placement. If it is alleged that a juvenile offender has violated a condition of probation or of a court-ordered placement, the county or district attorney, the current custodian of the juvenile offender, or the victim of the offense committed by the offender may file a report with the assigned community supervision officer of the juvenile offender. If, upon review by the assigned community supervision officer of the juvenile offender, it is determined that the violation is eligible under K.S.A. 2018 Supp. 38-2392, and amendments thereto, for review by the court, the assigned community supervision officer may file a report with the court describing the alleged violation. The court shall provide copies of the report to the parties to the proceeding. The court, upon the court's own motion or the motion of the secretary of corrections or any party, shall set the matter for hearing and may issue a warrant pursuant to K.S.A. 2018 Supp. 38-2342, and amendments thereto, if there is probable cause to believe that the juvenile poses a significant risk of physical harm to another or damage to property. Upon receipt of the motion, the court shall fix a time and place for hearing and provide notice to the movant and to the current custodian of the juvenile offender and to each party to the proceeding. If the court finds by a preponderance of the evidence that the juvenile offender has absconded from supervision, violated a condition of probation or placement or committed a technical violation for a third or subsequent time, the court may, subject to the overall case length limit, extend or modify the terms of probation or placement or enter another sentence pursuant to K.S.A. 2018 Supp. 38-2361, and amendments thereto, except that a child support order which has been registered under K.S.A. 2018 Supp. 38-2321, and amendments thereto, may only be modified pursuant to K.S.A. 2018 Supp. 38-2321, and amendments thereto.
