• 1. Upon the filing of a Motion to Release a minor from secure detention, counsel for the minor shall immediately provide a copy of the Motion to the minor's probation officer. No Motion to Release a minor should be heard unless the minor's probation officer has received 24 hour advance notice by telephone or in writing.
• 2. Prior to requesting a continuance of a scheduled hearing for jurisdiction, disposition or fitness, counsel shall notify the minor's probation officer of the request and any new dates being proposed.
