§ 751. Order dismissing petition. If the allegations of a petition

under this article are not established, the court shall dismiss the

petition. The court may in its discretion dismiss a petition under this

article, in the interests of justice where attempts have been made to

adjust the case as provided for in sections seven hundred thirty-five

and seven hundred forty-two of this article and the probation service

has exhausted its efforts to successfully adjust such case as a result

of the petition's failure to provide reasonable assistance to the

probation service.
