If contacted by the young adult or the court about extending the court’s jurisdiction, the caseworker or Preparation for Adult Living (PAL) worker must:

  •   arrange, according to county or regional procedures, for the young adult to complete Form 2524Word Document Request for Continued Court Jurisdiction After Turning 18;

  •   submit a completed Form 2054, generated in IMPACT, to the attorney representing DFPS.

These tasks must be performed by:

  •   the caseworker, if the SUB stage is still open in IMPACT; or

  •   the PAL worker, if the SUB stage is closed.

Both workers receive assistance from the local attorneys, as needed, before going to court.
