1. If a petition is filed alleging that a child is in need of supervision and the
child previously has not been found to be within the purview of this title, the juvenile
court: (a) Shall admonish the child to obey the law and to refrain from repeating the acts
for which the petition was filed; (b) Shall maintain a record of the admonition; (c) Shall refer the child to services available in the community for counseling, behavioral
modification and social adjustment; and (d) Shall not adjudicate the child to be in need of supervision, unless a subsequent
petition based upon additional facts is filed with the juvenile court after admonition
and referral pursuant to this subsection. 2. If a child is not subject to the provisions of subsection 1, the juvenile court
may not adjudicate the child to be in need of supervision unless the juvenile court
expressly finds that reasonable efforts were taken in the community to assist the
child in ceasing the behavior for which the child is alleged to be in need of supervision. 3. The provisions of this section do not apply to a child who is alleged to be in
need of supervision because the child is a habitual truant.
