(2) The test of the youth’s, parent’s or estate’s ability to pay costs under subsection (1) of this section is the same test as applied to appointment of counsel for defendants under ORS 135.050 or under the policies, procedures, standards and guidelines adopted under ORS 151.216. If counsel is provided at state expense, the court shall apply this test in accordance with the guidelines adopted by the Public Defense Services Commission under ORS 151.485.
(3) If counsel is provided at state expense, the court shall determine the amount the youth, parents or estate is required to pay for the costs of administrative, legal and other services related to the provision of appointed counsel in the same manner as this amount is determined under ORS 151.487.
(4) In determining whether to order the youth to pay costs under subsection (1) of this section, the court shall also consider the reformative effect of having the youth pay. The court may order that a portion of any moneys earned by the youth in juvenile work projects be used to pay costs ordered under subsection (1) of this section.
(5) The court’s order of payment is enforceable in the same manner as an order of support under ORS 419C.600. [1993 c.33 §183; 1997 c.761 §§7,7a; 2001 c.962 §50; 2003 c.449 §13; 2012 c.107 §47]
