18         (10)(a)1.  When a child is committed to the Department
19  of Juvenile Justice awaiting dispositional placement, removal
20  of the child from detention care shall occur within 5 days,
21  excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays. Any child
22  held in secure detention during the 5 days must meet detention
23  admission criteria pursuant to this section. If the child is
24  committed to a moderate-risk residential program, the
25  department may seek an order from the court, or the court, on
26  its own motion, may authorize authorizing continued detention
27  for a specific period of time necessary for the appropriate
28  residential placement of the child. However, such continued
29  detention in secure detention care may not exceed 60 15 days
30  after commitment, excluding Saturdays, Sundays, and legal
31  holidays, and except as otherwise provided in this subsection.
