	LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST


   SB 851, Committee on Public Safety.  Public safety.
   (1) Existing law contains numerous provisions pertaining to crime
and the implementation of the criminal laws of this state.
   This would make numerous, nonsubstantive changes to these
provisions.
   (2) Existing law provides that the Attorney General, district
attorney, or other specified law enforcement officers are not
prohibited from overhearing or recording any communication that they
could lawfully overhear or record, prior to the enactment of
specified prohibitions on the eavesdropping or recording of specified
communications.
   This bill would add to the law enforcement officers listed in this
provision police officers of the County of Los Angeles.
   (3) Under existing law, except as specified, a prescribed
limitation of time for certain offenses is not tolled or extended for
any reason.  Existing law provides that for specified offenses a
prescribed limitation of time does not commence to run until the
discovery of that offense. This provision is applicable to those
offenses punishable by imprisonment in the state prison, a material
element of which is fraud or breach of a fiduciary obligation, the
commission of the crimes of theft or embezzlement upon an elder or
dependent adult, or the basis of which is misconduct in office by a
public officer, employee, or appointee, including, but not limited
to, specified offenses.
   This bill would revise and recast these provisions regarding elder
or dependent adults.  The bill would also provide that the
limitations period for specified crimes involving the unlawful use of
personal identifying information and procuring or offering a false
or forged instrument for record does not begin to run until discovery
of the offense.
   (4) Existing law defines certain persons as peace officers,
including safety police officers of the County of Los Angeles, who
may carry firearms and whose authority extends to any place in the
state for the purpose of performing their duties and making arrests,
as specified.
   This bill would change the reference to police officers of the
County of Los Angeles.
   (5) Existing law establishes a 5-year pilot program that
authorizes the court to require any adult who has been convicted of a
nonviolent or nonserious offense to participate in a program
designed to assist the person in obtaining the equivalent of a 12th
grade education as a condition of probation.  This program is
operable only upon approval of a county's board of supervisors.
Existing law also authorizes the court to require a probationer to
participate in a literacy or General Education Development Program.
Existing law repeals this program on January 1, 2004, unless it is
extended or made permanent by subsequent legislation.
   This bill would extend the repeal date of this program to January
1, 2008.
   (6) Existing law generally creates an ignition interlock device
program for those people who are convicted of driving under the
influence.  Under this program, existing law makes it unlawful for
any person whose driving privilege is restricted for specified
reasons to operate any vehicle not equipped with a functioning
ignition interlock device.  If a person is convicted of violating
this provision, the court is required to notify the Department of
Motor Vehicles, which is required to terminate the restriction and
suspend or revoke the person's driving privilege, as specified.
Existing law also requires the Department of Motor Vehicles to
conduct 2 studies to evaluate the effectiveness of ignition interlock
in California and requires that the findings be reported to the
Legislature, as specified.  Existing law repeals these provisions as
of January 1, 2005.
   This bill would delete this repeal date as it relates to the
ignition interlock program, and would make it only apply to the
studies of ignition interlock devices.
   (7) Existing law requires that each county establish an emergency
response adult protective services program.  Existing law requires a
county to respond immediately to any report of imminent danger to an
elder or dependent adult residing in other than a long-term care
facility or a residential facility.  For reports involving persons
residing in a long-term care facility or a residential care facility,
the county shall report to the local long-term care ombudsman
program, as specified.  Except as specified, existing law requires
the county to respond to all other reports of danger to an elder or
dependent adult in other than a long-term care facility or
residential care facility within 10 calendar days or as soon as
practicably possible.
   This bill would provide that a county shall not be required to
report or respond to a report that involves danger to an elder or
dependent adult residing in any facility for the incarceration of
prisoners that is operated by or under contract to the Federal Bureau
of Prisons, the Department of Corrections, the California Department
of the Youth Authority, a county sheriff's department, a city police
department, or any other law enforcement agency when the abuse
reportedly has occurred in that facility.

supervisors.
   (d) A county probation department may utilize the volunteer
services of a local college or university in evaluating the
effectiveness of this program.  In the County of Los Angeles, the

or failure of the program.  CSULA shall bear the costs of the
evaluation and report.
   (e) This section shall not apply to any person who is mentally or
developmentally incapable of attaining the equivalent of a 12th grade

percent of the persons participating in the pilot projects obtain the
equivalent of a 12th grade education within three years.
   (h) It is the intent of the Legislature that any increases in
adult enrollment resulting from the implementation of subdivision (a)
shall not be included in the apportionment of funds for adult
education pursuant to Sections 52616.17 to 52616.20, inclusive, of
the Education Code.

term of probation to revoke, modify, or change its order of
suspension of imposition or execution of sentence.  The court may at
any time when the ends of justice will be subserved thereby, and when
the good conduct and reform of the person so held on probation shall
warrant it, terminate the period of probation, and discharge the
person so held.
   (b) The exercise of the court's authority in subdivision (a) to
revoke, modify, change, or terminate probation is subject to the
following:
   (1) Before any sentence or term or condition of probation is
modified, a hearing shall be held in open court before the judge.
The prosecuting attorney shall be given a two-day written notice and
an opportunity to be heard on the matter, except that, as to
modifying or terminating a protective order in a case involving
domestic violence, as defined in Section 6211 of the Family Code, the
prosecuting attorney shall be given a five-day written notice and an
opportunity to be heard.
   (A) If the sentence or term or condition of probation is modified
pursuant to this section, the judge shall state the reasons for that
modification on the record.
   (B) As used in this section, modification of sentence shall
include reducing a felony to a misdemeanor.
   (2) No order shall be made without written notice first given by
the court or the clerk thereof to the proper probation officer of the
intention to revoke, modify, or change its order.
   (3) In all cases, if the court has not seen fit to revoke the
order of probation and impose sentence or pronounce judgment, the
defendant shall at the end of the term of probation or any extension
thereof, be by the court discharged subject to the provisions of
these sections.
   (4) The court may modify the time and manner of the term of
probation for purposes of measuring the timely payment of restitution
obligations or the good conduct and reform of the defendant while on
probation.  The court shall not modify the dollar amount of the
restitution obligations due to the good conduct and reform of the
defendant, absent compelling and extraordinary reasons, nor shall the
court limit the ability of payees to enforce the obligations in the
manner of judgments in civil actions.
   (5) Nothing in this section shall be construed to prohibit the
court from modifying the dollar amount of a restitution order
pursuant to subdivision (f) of Section 1202.4 at any time during the
term of the probation.
   (6) The court may limit or terminate a protective order that is a
condition of probation in a case involving domestic violence, as
defined in Section 6211 of the Family Code.  In determining whether
to limit or terminate the protective order, the court shall consider
if there has been any material change in circumstances since the
crime for which the order was issued, and any issue that relates to
whether there exists good cause for the change, including, but not
limited to, consideration of all of the following:
   (A) Whether the probationer has accepted responsibility for the
abusive behavior perpetrated against the victim.
   (B) Whether the probationer is currently attending and actively
participating in counseling sessions.
   (C) Whether the probationer has completed parenting counseling, or
attended alcoholics or narcotics counseling.
   (D) Whether the probationer has moved from the state, or is
incarcerated.
   (E) Whether the probationer is still cohabiting, or intends to
cohabit, with any subject of the order.
   (F) Whether the defendant has performed well on probation,
including consideration of any progress reports.
   (G) Whether the victim desires the change, and if so, the victim's
reasons, whether the victim has consulted a victim advocate, and
whether the victim has prepared a safety plan and has access to local
resources.
   (H) Whether the change will impact any children involved,
including consideration of any child protective services information.

   (I) Whether the ends of justice would be served by limiting or
terminating the order.
   (c) If a probationer is ordered to serve time in jail, and the
probationer escapes while serving that time, the probation is revoked
as a matter of law on the day of the escape.
   (d) If probation is revoked pursuant to subdivision (c), upon
taking the probationer into custody, the probationer shall be
accorded a hearing or hearings consistent with the holding in the
case of People v. Vickers (1972) 8 Cal.3d 451.  The purpose of that
hearing or hearings is not to revoke probation, as the revocation has
occurred as a matter of law in accordance with subdivision (c), but
rather to afford the defendant an opportunity to require the
prosecution to establish that the alleged violation did in fact occur
and to justify the revocation.
   (e) This section does not apply to cases covered by Section
1203.2.
  SEC. 19.  Section 3520 of the Penal Code is amended to read:

Office of Criminal Justice Planning and subject to the
confidentiality laws pertaining to the release of medical forensic
examination records.
   (e) The forms shall be made accessible for use on the Internet.
  SEC. 21.  Section 12022.5 of the Penal Code is amended to read:

  SEC. 23.  Section 13864 of the Penal Code, as amended by Chapter
711 of the Statutes of 1992, is amended to read:
   13864.  There is hereby created, in the Office of Criminal Justice
Planning, the Comprehensive Alcohol and Drug Prevention Education
component of the Suppression of Drug Abuse in Schools Program in
public elementary schools in grades 4 to 6, inclusive.
Notwithstanding Section 13861 or any other provision in this code,
all Comprehensive Alcohol and Drug Prevention Education component
funds made available to the Office of Criminal Justice Planning in
accordance with the Classroom Instructional Improvement and
Accountability Act shall be administered by and disbursed to county
superintendents of schools in this state by the Executive Director of
the Office of Criminal Justice Planning.  All applications for that
funding shall be reviewed and evaluated by the Office of Criminal
Justice Planning, in consultation with the State Department of
Alcohol and Drug Programs and the State Department of Education.
   (a) The executive director is authorized to allocate and award
funds to county department superintendents of schools for allocation
to individual school districts or to a consortium of two or more
school districts.  Applications funded under this section shall
comply with the criteria, policies, and procedures established under
subdivision (b) of this section.
   (b) As a condition of eligibility for the funding described in
this section, the school district or consortium of school districts
shall have entered into an agreement with a local law enforcement
agency to jointly implement a comprehensive alcohol and drug abuse
prevention, intervention, and suppression program developed by the
Office of Criminal Justice Planning, in consultation with the State
Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs and the State Department of
Education, containing all of the following components:
   (1) A standardized age-appropriate curriculum designed for pupils
in grades 4 to 6, inclusive, specifically tailored and sensitive to
the socioeconomic and ethnic characteristics of the target pupil
population.  Although new curricula shall not be required to be
developed, existing curricula may be modified and adapted to meet
local needs.  The elements of the standardized comprehensive alcohol
and drug prevention education program curriculum shall be defined and
approved by the Governor's Policy Council on Drug and Alcohol Abuse,
as established by Executive Order #D-70-80.
   (2) A planning process that shall include both assessment of the
school district's characteristics, resources and the extent of
problems related to juvenile drug abuse, and input from local law
enforcement agencies.
   (3) A school district governing board policy that provides for a
coordinated intervention system that, at a minimum, includes
procedures for identification, intervention, and referral of at-risk
alcohol-and drug-involved youth, and identifies the roles and
responsibilities of law enforcement, school personnel, parents, and
pupils.
   (4) Early intervention activities that include, but are not
limited to, the identification of pupils who are high risk or have
chronic drug abuse problems, assessment, and referral for appropriate
services, including ongoing support services.
   (5) Parent education programs to initiate and maintain parental
involvement, with an emphasis for parents of at-risk pupils.
   (6) Staff and in-service training programs, including both indepth
training for the core team involved in providing program services
and general awareness training for all school faculty and
administrative, credentialed, and noncredentialed school personnel.
   (7) In-service training programs for local law enforcement
officers.
   (8) School, law enforcement, and community involvement to ensure
coordination of program services.  Pursuant to that coordination, the
school district or districts and other local agencies are encouraged
to use a single community advisory committee or task force for drug,
alcohol, and tobacco abuse prevention programs, as an alternative to
the creation of a separate group for that purpose under each state
or federally funded program.
   (c) The application of the county superintendent of schools shall
be submitted to the Office of Criminal Justice Planning.  Funds made
available to the Office of Criminal Justice Planning for allocation
under this section are intended to enhance, but shall not supplant,
local funds that would, in the absence of the Comprehensive Alcohol
and Drug Prevention Education component, be made available to
prevent, intervene in, or suppress drug abuse among schoolage
children.  For districts that are already implementing a
comprehensive drug abuse prevention program for pupils in grades 4 to
6, inclusive, the county superintendent shall propose the use of the
funds for drug prevention activities in school grades other than 4
to 6, inclusive, compatible with the program components of this
section.  The expenditure of funds for that alternative purpose shall
be approved by the executive director.
   (1) Unless otherwise authorized by the Office of Criminal Justice
Planning, each county superintendent of schools shall be the fiscal
agent for any Comprehensive Alcohol and Drug Prevention Education
component award, and shall be responsible for ensuring that each
school district within that county receives the allocation prescribed
by the Office of Criminal Justice Planning.  Each county
superintendent shall develop a countywide plan that complies with
program guidelines and procedures established by the Office of
Criminal Justice Planning pursuant to subdivision (d).  A maximum of
5 percent of the county's allocation may be used for administrative
costs associated with the project.
   (2) Each county superintendent of schools shall establish and
chair a local coordinating committee to assist the superintendent in
developing and implementing a countywide implementation plan.  This
committee shall include the county drug administrator, law
enforcement executives, school district governing board members and
administrators, school faculty, parents, and drug prevention and
intervention program executives selected by the superintendent and
approved by the county board of supervisors.
   (d) The Executive Director of the Office of Criminal Justice
Planning, in consultation with the State Department of Alcohol and
Drug Programs and the State Department of Education, shall prepare
and issue guidelines and procedures for the Comprehensive Alcohol and
Drug Prevention Education component consistent with this section.
   (e) The Comprehensive Alcohol and Drug Prevention Education
component guidelines shall set forth the terms and conditions upon
which the Office of Criminal Justice Planning is prepared to award
grants of funds pursuant to this section.  The guidelines shall not
constitute rules, regulations, orders, or standards of general
application.
   (f) Funds awarded under the Comprehensive Alcohol and Drug
Prevention Education Program shall not be subject to Section 10318 of
the Public Contracts Code.
   (g) Funds available pursuant to Item 8100-111-001 and Provision 1
of Item 8100-001-001 of the Budget Act of 1989, or the successor
provision of the appropriate Budget Act, shall be allocated to
implement this section.
   (h) The Executive Director of the Office of Criminal Justice
Planning shall collaborate, to the extent possible, with other state
agencies that administer drug, alcohol, and tobacco abuse prevention
education programs to streamline and simplify the process whereby
local educational agencies apply for drug, alcohol, and tobacco
education funding under this section and under other state and
federal programs.  The Office of Criminal Justice Planning, the State
Department of Alcohol and Drug Programs, the State Department of
Education, and other state agencies, to the extent possible, shall
develop joint policies and collaborate planning in the administration
of drug, alcohol, and tobacco abuse prevention education programs.

consistent with and shall not exceed the authority of the elected
district attorney or his or her deputies.
   (3) Violations of city or county ordinances may be prosecuted by
circuit prosecutors when there is an environmental nexus between the
ordinance and a violation of state law, federal law, or both state
and federal law.
   (4) Participating district attorney offices shall provide matching
funds or in-kind contributions equivalent to, but not less than, 20
percent of the expense of the deputized environmental circuit
prosecutor.

motor vehicle, which is owned or utilized by the person's employer,
during the course of employment on private property which is owned or
utilized by the employer, except an offstreet parking facility as
defined in subdivision (d) of Section 12500.
   (e) When the prosecution agrees to a plea of guilty or nolo
contendere to a charge of a violation of this section in satisfaction
of, or as a substitute for, an original charge of a violation of
Section 14601.2, and the court accepts that plea, except, in the
interest of justice, when the court finds it would be inappropriate,

interlock in California and report the findings to the Legislature on
or before July 1, 2002.  This study shall examine the implementation
of ignition interlock by the courts, the department and ignition
interlock installers, and report the rate at which courts assign
interlock to persons convicted of a violation of Section 14601.2 and
the rate at which these persons install these devices.
   (b) The department shall conduct an outcome study of ignition
interlock in California and report the findings to the Legislature on
or before July 1, 2004.  This study shall examine the effectiveness
of California's ignition interlock laws in reducing recidivism,
moving violation convictions and crashes among drivers ordered by the
court to install interlock devices, and among drivers applying to
the department, and receiving from it, an ignition interlock
restricted license.
  (c) This section shall remain in effect only until January 1, 2005,
and as of that date is repealed, unless a later enacted statute,
that is enacted before January 1, 2005, deletes or extends that date.

  SEC. 29.  Section 23249.1 of the Vehicle Code is repealed.
  SEC. 30.  Section 35400 of the Vehicle Code is amended to read:
   35400.  (a) No vehicle shall exceed a length of 40 feet.
   (b) This section does not apply to any of the following:
   (1) A vehicle used in a combination of vehicles when the excess
length is caused by auxiliary parts, equipment, or machinery not used
as space to carry any part of the load, except that the combination
of vehicles shall not exceed the length provided for combination
vehicles.
   (2) A vehicle, when the excess length is caused by any parts
necessary to comply with the fender and mudguard regulations of this
code.
   (3) (A) An articulated bus or articulated trolley coach that does
not exceed a length of 60 feet.
   (B) An articulated bus or articulated trolley coach described in
subparagraph (A) may be equipped with a folding device attached to
the front of the bus or trolley if the device is designed and used
exclusively for transporting bicycles.  The device, including any
bicycles transported thereon, shall be mounted in a manner that does
not materially affect efficiency or visibility of vehicle safety
equipment, and shall not extend more than 36 inches from the front
body of the bus or trolley coach when fully deployed.  The handlebars
of a bicycle that is transported on a device described in this
subparagraph shall not extend more than 42 inches from the front of
the bus.
   (4) A semitrailer while being towed by a motortruck or truck
tractor, if the distance from the kingpin to the rearmost axle of the
semitrailer does not exceed 40 feet for semitrailers having two or
more axles, or 38 feet for semitrailers having one axle if the
semitrailer does not, exclusive of attachments, extend forward of the
rear of the cab of the motortruck or truck tractor.
   (5) A bus or house car when the excess length is caused by the
projection of a front safety bumper or a rear safety bumper, or both.
  The safety bumper shall not cause the length of the vehicle to
exceed the maximum legal limit by more than one foot in the front and
one foot in the rear.  For the purposes of this chapter, "safety
bumper" means any device that is fitted on an existing bumper or
which replaces the bumper and is constructed, treated, or
manufactured to absorb energy upon impact.
   (6) A schoolbus, when the excess length is caused by the
projection of a crossing control arm.  For the purposes of this
chapter, "crossing control arm" means an extendable and retractable
device fitted to the front of a schoolbus that is designed to impede
movement of pupils exiting the schoolbus directly in front of the
schoolbus so that pupils are visible to the driver while they are
moving in front of the schoolbus.  An operator of a schoolbus shall
not extend a crossing control arm while the schoolbus is in motion.
Except when activated, a crossing control arm shall not cause the
maximum length of the schoolbus to be extended by more than 10
inches, inclusive of any front safety bumper.  Use of a crossing
control arm by the operator of a schoolbus does not, in and of
itself, fulfill his or her responsibility to ensure the safety of
students crossing a highway or private road pursuant to Section
22112.
   (7) A bus, when the excess length is caused by a device, located
in front of the front axle, for lifting wheelchairs into the bus.

more than 18 inches, inclusive of any front safety bumper.
   (8) A bus, when the excess length is caused by a device attached
to the rear of the bus designed and used exclusively for the
transporting of bicycles.  This device may be up to 10 feet in
length, if the device, along with any other device permitted pursuant
to this section, does not cause the total length of the bus,
including any device or load, to exceed 50 feet.
   (9) A bus operated by a public agency or a passenger stage
corporation, as defined in Section 226 of the Public Utilities Code,
used in transit system service, other than a schoolbus, when the
excess length is caused by a folding device attached to the front of
the bus which is designed and used exclusively for transporting
bicycles.  The device, including any bicycles transported thereon,
shall be mounted in a manner that does not materially affect
efficiency or visibility of vehicle safety equipment, and shall not
extend more than 36 inches from the front body of the bus when fully
deployed.  The handlebars of a bicycle that is transported on a
device described in this paragraph shall not extend more than 42
inches from the front of the bus.  A device described in this
paragraph may not be used on any bus which, exclusive of the device,
exceeds 40 feet in length or on any bus having a device attached to
the rear of the bus pursuant to paragraph (8).
   (10) A bus of a length of up to 45 feet when operating on those
highways specified in subdivision (a) of Section 35401.5.  The
Department of Transportation or local authorities, with respect to
highways under their respective jurisdictions, shall not deny
reasonable access to a bus of a length of up to 45 feet between the
highways specified in subdivision (a) of Section 35401.5 and points
of loading and unloading for motor carriers of passengers as required
by the federal Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act of
1991 (P.L. 102-240).
   (11) (A) A house car of a length of up to 45 feet when operating
on the National System of Interstate and Defense Highways or when
using those portions of federal aid primary system highways that have
been qualified by the United States Secretary of Transportation for
that use, or when using routes appropriately identified by the
Department of Transportation or local authorities, with respect to
highways under their respective jurisdictions.
   (B) A house car described in subparagraph (A) may be operated on a
highway that provides reasonable access to facilities for purposes
limited to fuel, food, and lodging when that access is consistent
with the safe operation of the vehicle and when the facility is
within one road mile of identified points of ingress and egress to or
from highways specified in subparagraph (A) for use by that vehicle.

   (C) As used in this paragraph and paragraph (10), "reasonable
access" means access substantially similar to that authorized for
combinations of vehicles pursuant to subdivision (c) of Section
35401.5.
   (D) Any access route established by a local authority pursuant to
subdivision (d) of Section 35401.5 is open for access by a house car
of a length of up to 45 feet.  In addition, local authorities may
establish a process whereby access to services by house cars of a
length of up to 45 feet may be applied for upon a route not
previously established as an access route.  The denial of a request
for access to services shall be only on the basis of safety and an
engineering analysis of the proposed access route.  In lieu of
processing an access application, local authorities, with respect to
highways under their jurisdiction, may provide signing, mapping, or a
listing of highways, as necessary, to indicate the use of these
specific routes by a house car of a length of up to 45 feet.
   (c) The Legislature, by increasing the maximum permissible kingpin
to rearmost axle distance to 40 feet effective January 1, 1987, as
provided in paragraph (4) of subdivision (b), does not intend this
action to be considered a precedent for any future increases in truck
size and length limitations.
   (d) Any transit bus equipped with a folding device installed on or
after January 1, 1999, that is permitted under subparagraph (B) of
paragraph (3) of subdivision (b) or under paragraph (9) of
subdivision (b) shall be additionally equipped with any of the
following:
   (1) An indicator light that is visible to the driver and is
activated whenever the folding device is in an extended position.
   (2) Any other device or mechanism that provides notice to the
driver that the folding device is in an extended position.
   (3) A mechanism that causes the folding device to retract
automatically from an extended position.
   (e) (1) No person shall improperly or unsafely mount a bicycle on
a device described in subparagraph (B) of paragraph (3) of
subdivision (b), or in paragraph (9) of subdivision (b).
   (2) Notwithstanding subdivision (a) of Section 23114 or
subdivision (a) of Section 24002 or any other provision of law, when
a bicycle is improperly or unsafely loaded by a passenger onto a
transit bus, the passenger, and not the driver, is liable for any
violation of this code that is attributable to the improper or
unlawful loading of the bicycle.
  SEC. 31.  Section 355 of the Welfare and Institutions Code is
amended to read:
   355.  (a) At the jurisdictional hearing, the court shall first
consider only the question whether the minor is a person described by
Section 300.  Any legally admissible evidence that is relevant to
the circumstances or acts that are alleged to bring the minor within
the jurisdiction of the juvenile court is admissible and may be
received in evidence.  Proof by a preponderance of evidence must be
adduced to support a finding that the minor is a person described by
Section 300.  Objections that could have been made to evidence
introduced shall be deemed to have been made by any parent or
guardian who is present at the hearing and unrepresented by counsel,
unless the court finds that the parent or guardian has made a knowing
and intelligent waiver of the right to counsel.  Objections that
could have been made to evidence introduced shall be deemed to have
been made by any unrepresented child.
   (b) A social study prepared by the petitioning agency, and hearsay
evidence contained in it, is admissible and constitutes competent
evidence upon which a finding of jurisdiction pursuant to Section 300
may be based, to the extent allowed by subdivisions (c) and (d).
   (1) For the purposes of this section, "social study" means any
written report furnished to the juvenile court and to all parties or
their counsel by the county probation or welfare department in any
matter involving the custody, status, or welfare of a minor in a
dependency proceeding pursuant to Article 6 (commencing with Section
300) to 12 (commencing with Section 385), inclusive of Chapter 2 of
Division 2.
   (2) The preparer of the social study shall be made available for
cross-examination upon a timely request by any party.  The court may
deem the preparer available for cross-examination if it determines
that the preparer is on telephone standby and can be present in court
within a reasonable time of the request.
   (3) The court may grant a reasonable continuance not to exceed 10
days upon request by any party if the social study is not provided to
the parties or their counsel within a reasonable time before the
hearing.
   (c) (1) If any party to the jurisdictional hearing raises a timely
objection to the admission of specific hearsay evidence contained in
a social study, the specific hearsay evidence shall not be
sufficient by itself to support a jurisdictional finding or any
ultimate fact upon which a jurisdictional finding is based, unless
the petitioner establishes one or more of the following exceptions:
   (A) The hearsay evidence would be admissible in any civil or
criminal proceeding under any statutory or decisional exception to
the prohibition against hearsay.
   (B) The hearsay declarant is a minor under the age of 12 years who
is the subject of the jurisdictional hearing.  However, the hearsay
statement of a minor under the age of 12 years shall not be
admissible if the objecting party establishes that the statement is
unreliable because it was the product of fraud, deceit, or undue
influence.
   (C) The hearsay declarant is a peace officer as defined by Chapter
4.5 (commencing with Section 830) of Part 2 of Title 3 of the Penal
Code, a health practitioner as defined by paragraphs (21) to (28),
inclusive, of subdivision (a) of Section 11165.7 of the Penal Code, a
social worker licensed pursuant to Chapter 14 (commencing with
Section 4996) of Division 2 of the Business and Professions Code, or
a teacher who holds a credential pursuant to Chapter 2 (commencing
with Section 44200) of Part 24 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the
Education Code.  For the purpose of this subdivision, evidence in a
declaration is admissible only to the extent that it would otherwise
be admissible under this section or if the declarant were present and
testifying in court.
   (D) The hearsay declarant is available for cross-examination.  For
purposes of this section, the court may deem a witness available for
cross-examination if it determines that the witness is on telephone
standby and can be present in court within a reasonable time of a
request to examine the witness.
   (2) For purposes of this subdivision, an objection is timely if it
identifies with reasonable specificity the disputed hearsay evidence
and it gives the petitioner a reasonable period of time to meet the
objection prior to a contested hearing.
   (d) This section shall not be construed to limit the right of any
party to the jurisdictional hearing to subpoena a witness whose
statement is contained in the social study or to introduce admissible
evidence relevant to the weight of the hearsay evidence or the
credibility of the hearsay declarant.
  SEC. 32.  Section 387 of the Welfare and Institutions Code is

private or county institution, shall be made only after noticed
hearing upon a supplemental petition.
   (a) The supplemental petition shall be filed by the social worker
in the original matter and shall contain a concise statement of facts
sufficient to support the conclusion that the previous disposition
has not been effective in the rehabilitation or protection of the

show that the placement is not appropriate in view of the criteria in
Section 361.3.
   (b) Upon the filing of the supplemental petition, the clerk of the
juvenile court shall immediately set the same for hearing within 30
days, and the social worker shall cause notice thereof to be served
upon the persons and in the manner prescribed by Sections 290.1 and
291.

of the petition may be made only after a hearing is conducted
pursuant to Article 7 (commencing with Section 305).

   (2) An immediate or 10-day in-person response is not required when
the county, based upon an evaluation of risk, determines and
documents that the elder or dependent adult is not in imminent danger
and that an immediate or 10-day in-person response is not necessary
to protect the health or safety of the elder or dependent adult.
   (3) The State Department of Social Services, in consultation with
the County Welfare Directors Association, shall develop requirements
for implementation of paragraph (2), including, but not limited to,

department, or any other law enforcement agency when the abuse
reportedly has occurred in that facility.
   (d) A county shall provide case management services to elders and
