Except for offenses that the county attorney designates as eligible for diversion or referral to a community based alternative program, upon receipt of a referral alleging the commission of an offense, the juvenile probation officer shall submit the referral to the county attorney to determine if a petition should be filed. F. If the county attorney diverts the prosecution of a juvenile to the juvenile court, the juvenile probation officer shall conduct a personal interview with the alleged juvenile offender. At least one of the juvenile s parents or guardians shall attend the interview. The probation officer may waive the requirement for the attendance of the parent or guardian for good cause. If the juvenile acknowledges responsibility for the delinquent or incorrigible act, the juvenile probation officer shall require that the juvenile comply with one or more of the following conditions:.

The resolution of the program is not a conviction of crime, does not impose any civil disabilities ordinarily resulting from a conviction and does not disqualify the juvenile in any civil service application or appointment. H. In order to participate in a community based alternative program the juvenile who is referred to a program shall admit responsibility for the essential elements of the accusation and shall cooperate with the program in all of its proceedings.

If the court determines that a parent or a person seeking custody has been convicted of any drug offense under title, chapter or any violation of section -, - or - within twelve months before the petition or the request for custody, there is a rebuttable presumption that sole or joint custody of the child by that person is contrary to the best interests of the child.

Findings that the custody or visitation arrangement ordered by the court appropriately protects the child. D. To determine if the person has rebutted the presumption established under subsection C of this section, at a minimum the court shall consider the following evidence: - -

Unless otherwise provided by court order or law, on reasonable request both parents are entitled to have equal access to documents and other information concerning the child s education and physical, mental, moral and emotional health including medical, school, police, court and other records directly from the custodian of the records or from the other parent. A person who does not comply with a reasonable request shall reimburse the requesting parent for court costs and attorney fees incurred by that parent to force compliance with this subsection. A parent who attempts to restrict the release of documents or information by the custodian under this subsection without a prior court order is subject to appropriate legal sanctions. L. The court may specify one parent as the primary caretaker of the child and one home as the primary home of the child for the purposes of defining eligibility for public assistance.

No motion to modify a custody decree may be made earlier than one year after its date, unless the court permits it to be made on the basis of affidavits that there is reason to believe the child s present environment may seriously endanger the child s physical, mental, moral or emotional health. At any time after a joint custody order is entered, a parent may petition the court for modification of the order on the basis of evidence that domestic violence pursuant to section -0 or -0, spousal abuse or child abuse occurred since the entry of the joint custody order.
