When a child on probation moves from one county to another and intends to remain in the receiving county for at least __ days, the sending county's juvenile probation department shall request interim supervision?

• A. 30
• B. 60
• C. 90
• D. 120

Answer: (B)

When a juvenile on probation moves to a new county and plans to stay there for a period of sixty days or more, the sending county’s juvenile probation department must request interim supervision. This carries the purpose of keeping supervision continuous during the transition, ensuring the juvenile continues to meet probation terms, receive needed services, and have regular court reporting while the receiving county arranges to take over supervision. The sixty-day threshold is the point at which a formal bridge is needed to coordinate between counties and the court. If the stay is shorter than sixty days, interim supervision is typically not required, as the receiving county can assume supervision without that transitional step.
