Confinement imposed under departmental classification system;
limitation
Sec. 11. If a child:
(1) is adjudicated a delinquent child for a delinquent act; and
(2) becomes a ward of the department of correction under this
chapter (or IC 31-6-4-15.9 before its repeal);
the department of correction may not at any time during the child's
confinement impose a departmental classification system on the child
that would cause the child to be confined in a correctional facility for
longer than the period of confinement under a departmental
classification system that existed on the date that the child committed
the delinquent act.
