Nevada Revised Statutes Section 62F.130 - Juvenile Justice

Alternative plan of supervision: Required for attendance at same school as victim; conditions; modification or rescission; victim and parent or guardian of victim to be informed of rights.

1. The juvenile court may permit a child who has been adjudicated delinquent for a sexual offense or a sexually motivated act to attend a public school or private school that a victim of the sexual offense or the sexually motivated act is attending if, upon the request of the child, the superintendent of the county school district or the executive head of the private school:

(a) The juvenile court develops and approves an alternative plan of supervision for the child that protects the safety and the interests of the victim;

(b) The victim and the parent or guardian of the victim consent, in writing, to the plan;

(c) The superintendent of the county school district or the executive head of the private school consents, in writing, to the plan; and

(d) The child and the parent or guardian of the child agree, in writing, to comply with the conditions of the plan.

2. As part of an alternative plan of supervision, the juvenile court shall impose reasonable conditions on the child and, if necessary to facilitate the alternative plan, on the parent or guardian of the child. The conditions must be designed to protect the safety and the interests of the victim and to ensure that the child complies with the plan.

3. Upon its own motion or upon a request from the district attorney, the victim, the parent or guardian of the victim or the probation officer or parole officer, as appropriate, assigned to the child, the juvenile court may modify or rescind the alternative plan of supervision or a condition of the alternative plan after providing notice and an opportunity to be heard to the child, the parent or guardian of the child, the district attorney and the parties who consented to the alternative plan. If a proposed modification is reasonably likely to increase contact between the victim and the child, the juvenile court may not make the modification without the written consent of the victim and the parent or guardian of the victim. If the juvenile court rescinds the alternative plan of supervision, the child is subject to the provisions of NRS 62F.100 to 62F.150, inclusive, as if the alternative plan had not existed.

4. Before the juvenile court accepts the written consent of the victim and the parent or guardian of the victim pursuant to this section, the juvenile court shall inform them of their right to withhold consent and, except as otherwise provided in NRS 62F.140, their right to have the child not attend the public school or private school the victim is attending.
