The Department of Juvenile Justice may discharge the child from commitment after providing fourteen (14) days’ prior written notice to the committing court, to the legal representative of the child, and to the county attorney of the county in which the committing court presides, which may object to the discharge by holding a court review under KRS § 610.120. During the period of commitment or placement, the court may review a dispositional order and may continue or terminate such order as the court deems essential to the best interests of the child.
