(b) the names of persons notified and the times of notification, or the reason for failure to notify.
(B) Temporary Detention; Court Not Open.
(1) Grounds. A juvenile apprehended without court order when the court is not open may be detained pending preliminary hearing if the offense or the juvenile meets a circumstance set forth in MCR 3.935(D)(1), or if no parent, guardian, or legal custodian can be located.
