(a)   For a child at any sanction level, the juvenile court
may:

          (i) Transfer temporary legal custody to a relative,
other suitable adult, state agency or local public agency the
court finds qualified to receive and care for the child, subject
to terms and conditions prescribed by the court;

           (ii) Commit the child to a suitable certified
hospital willing to accept the child for not more than ninety
(90) days for treatment for substance abuse or for specialized
treatment and rehabilitation programs conducted especially for
juveniles;

          (iii) Commit the child to a juvenile detention
facility for not more than six (6) months, if the adjudicated
delinquent has attained the age of twelve (12) years;
          (iv) Require the delinquent to participate in a teen
court program pursuant to W.S. 7-13-1205;

          (v) Require the child and his parents or guardian to
make restitution for any damage or loss caused by the child's
wrongful act, except that the liability of the parent or
guardian shall not exceed the limit established by W.S.
14-2-203;

          (vi) Impose a fine within the limits of law for an
offense or misconduct by the child where a fine might be imposed
by another court in this state having jurisdiction thereof.
Fines shall be paid to the clerk of court for deposit to the
public school fund of the county in which the fine was assessed
as provided by law;

          (vii) Require a child, within the limits of
applicable laws and regulations governing child labor, to
perform a designated number of hours of community service, to
participate in a work program or to perform labor or services
under the supervision of a responsible adult designated by the
court. Any order shall enable the child to meet the obligations
imposed pursuant to this act or for the purpose of discipline
and rehabilitation when deemed necessary or desirable by the
court;

          (viii) Order the child to be examined or treated by a
physician, surgeon, psychiatrist or psychologist or to obtain
other specialized treatment, care, counseling or training, and
place the child in a hospital or medical facility, youth camp,
school or other suitable facility for treatment;

          (ix) Restrict or restrain the child's driving
privileges for a period of time the court deems appropriate. If
necessary to enforce the restrictions, the court may take
possession of the child's driver's license;

          (x) Impose any demands, requirements, limitations,
restrictions or restraints on the child, and do all things with
regard to the child that his parents might reasonably and
lawfully do under similar circumstances;

          (xi) Order the child, his parents, or the guardian,
to undergo evaluation and indicated treatment or another program
designed to address problems which contributed to the
adjudication. A parent or guardian who willfully violates or
neglects or refuses to comply with any order of the court may be
found in contempt and punished as provided by W.S. 14-6-242;

          (xii) After notice to appear, order the child's
custodial and noncustodial parent or guardian to participate in
the child's treatment or plan of supervision or probation, or
otherwise order the performance of any acts which are reasonably
necessary to aid the juvenile in completion of court ordered
obligations;

          (xiii) Subject to subsection (b) of this section,
impose any one (1) or more of the following requirements upon
the child's parents or guardian if the court, after hearing,
finds that the child's act was proximately caused by the failure
or neglect of the parent or guardian to subject the child to
reasonable parental control and authority:

               (A) Order the child's parents or guardian to pay
all or part of any fine imposed under paragraph (vi) of this
subsection;

               (B) Require the child's parents or guardian to
perform community service with the child;

               (C) Require the child's parents or guardian to
attend parenting classes or other appropriate education or
treatment program at their own expense.

          (xiv) Require the child or the child's parents or
guardian and the child to participate in a court supervised
treatment program qualified under W.S. 5-12-101 through 5-12-
118, provided the court supervised treatment program accepts the
child's parents or guardian and the child for participation in
its program.

     (b) In any proceeding to impose requirements under
paragraph (a)(xiii) of this section, the child's parents or
guardian may raise as an affirmative defense that they have made
a good faith effort to prevent the child from engaging in
delinquent conduct or engaging in conduct indicating a need for
supervision and that, despite their efforts, the child continues
to engage in such conduct.

     (c) For a child at any sanction level, the juvenile court
shall inform the child of the progressive sanctions that may be
imposed on the child if the child continues to engage in
delinquent conduct.
     (d) If the juvenile court places the child on probation at
any sanction level, the juvenile court shall discharge the child
from the custody of the probation department on the date the
provisions of this section are met or on the child's twenty-
first birthday, whichever is earlier.
