1. “compl[y] with the spirit of Ind.Code § 31-6-9-2(b) [since repealed and recodified at Indiana Code section 31-31-3-6(2)]. Merely finding that the respondent did or did not commit certain acts is not an adequate factual basis upon which the juvenile judge may order a judgment of delinquency ..., or adequate for meaningful review by this court. We hold that the failure of the referee to make an adequate written record of findings and recommendations pursuant to [the statute] is error, and, therefore, reverse and remand this case with instructions to the referee to make such a written record of her findings.”
