VA SB64

Requires the Department of Juvenile Justice to petition the court for review when seeking to extend a juvenile's indeterminate commitment beyond the established length of stay guidelines

Mandates courts consider specific factors when ordering indeterminate commitments, including estimated length of stay guidelines, community safety interests, and whether other treatment programs are available

Requires the Department to file extension petitions at least 60 days before the end of the length of stay range, accompanied by a progress report detailing the juvenile's treatment, educational progress, and danger potential

Limits court-ordered extensions of indeterminate commitments to no more than six months at a time, with subsequent petitions required for additional extensions

Guarantees juveniles the right to appointed counsel for extension hearings and requires notification to victims or their families of any petition for review
