Alaska CINA R. 5
Authority of District Court Judges and Magistrate Judges
(a) Emergency Situations. When a child is in a
condition or surrounding dangerous to the welfare of the child
which requires immediate action, and no superior court judge
or authorized master is available, a district court judge or
magistrate judge may take the least restrictive action necessary
to protect the minor which a superior court judge is authorized
by law to take. The district court judge or magistrate judge
must immediately notify the superior court of the facts
concerning the child and expeditiously transfer the case file to
the superior court.
(b) Review. A party may request a hearing before the
superior court or master to review any action taken by a district
court judge or magistrate judge under this rule.
