(1) A child, whose legal custody has been transferred to a department, institution, agency, or person, requesting the juvenile court for a modification or termination of the order, alleging that the child is no longer dependent or that protective supervision is no longer necessary.

(2) A department, institution, agency, or person vested with legal custody or responsibility for protective supervision, requesting the juvenile court for a modification, an extension, or a termination of the order on the grounds that this action is in the best interests of the child.
