31-21-6-14. Information on a Warrant to Take Physical Custody of a Child

Sec. 14. (a) A warrant to take physical custody of a child must:
(1) recite the facts on which a conclusion of imminent serious physical harm or removal from the jurisdiction is based;
(2) direct law enforcement officers to take physical custody of the child immediately; and
(3) provide for the placement of the child pending final relief.
(b) The respondent must be served with the petition, warrant, and order immediately after the child is taken into physical custody.
(c) A warrant to take physical custody of a child is enforceable throughout Indiana. If the court finds on the basis of the testimony of the petitioner or other witness that a less intrusive remedy is not effective, the court may authorize law enforcement officers to enter private property to take physical custody of the child. If required by exigent circumstances of the case, the court may authorize law enforcement officers to make a forcible entry at any hour.
(d) The court may impose conditions on the placement of a child to ensure the appearance of the child and the child's custodian.
As added by P.L.138-2007, SEC.45.
