its findings thereon. In the absence of evidence to the contrary, a finding that the child
has committed an act which constitutes a felony is sufficient to sustain a finding that the
child is in need of care or rehabilitation. If the juvenile court finds that the child is
not in need of care or rehabilitation, it shall dismiss the proceedings and discharge the
child from any detention or other temporary care theretofore ordered. If the juvenile court
finds that the child is in need of care or rehabilitation, it may make any of the...
