  3. Chapter 8

If proceedings for the child's commitment under chapter 6, part 5 of this title are pending, the hearing to determine the necessity of administering convulsive therapy may be held only after adequate written notice has been given to the child, the child's legal guardian, and the child's attorney informing them of the nature of the therapy sought and the facts upon which the claim is based that the therapy is necessary for the child's health or safety. The hearing may either be consolidated with the hearing for the child's commitment under chapter 6, part 5 of this title, or may be convened at another time.
