b) Electronic monitoring devices shall not be used to converse with a minor or to eavesdrop or record any conversation. (

c) A minor shall be entitled to have one day credited against the minor’s maximum term of confinement for each day, or fraction thereof, that the minor serves on electronic monitoring. The provision of custody credits pursuant to this subdivision shall apply to custody credits earned beginning January 1, 2023. (

d) If electronic monitoring is imposed for a period greater than days, the court shall hold a hearing no less than once every days to ensure that the minor does not remain on electronic monitoring for an unreasonable length of time.

If less restrictive conditions of release are warranted, the court shall order removal of the electronic monitor or modify the terms of the electronic monitoring order to achieve the less restrictive alternative.
