(1)If a court has imposed on a youth a sentence stayed under 41-5-1604 (1)(a)(ii) and the youth violates the conditions of the stay or is alleged to have committed a new offense, the court may, without notice, direct that the youth be taken into immediate custody. The court shall notify the youth, the youth's counsel, and the youth's parents, guardian, or custodian in writing of the reasons alleged to exist for revocation of the stay of execution of the sentence.
(a)The court shall hold a revocation hearing at which the youth is entitled to receive:
(i)written notice of the alleged violation;
(ii)evidence of the alleged violation;
(iii)an opportunity to be heard in person and to present witnesses and evidence;
(iv)the right to cross-examine witnesses, unless the court finds good cause for not allowing confrontation; and
(v)the right to counsel.
(b)After the revocation hearing, if the court finds by a preponderance of the evidence presented that the conditions of the stay have been violated or that the youth has committed a new offense, the court shall provide the youth with a written statement of the evidence relied on and reasons for revocation and shall:
(i)continue the stay and place the youth on probation;
(ii)impose one or more dispositions under 41-5-1512 or 41-5-1513 if the youth is under 18 years of age; or

(3)Upon revocation and disposition under subsection (2)(b)(iii), the youth court shall transfer the case to the district court. Upon transfer, the offender's extended jurisdiction juvenile status is terminated and youth court jurisdiction is terminated.
