In re D.C. CA2/4
The juvenile court asserted jurisdiction over 15-year-old D.C., Jr. (D.C.), based on a finding that he had suffered emotional abuse as a result of a high conflict custody dispute between his parents. No party challenges the jurisdictional order.
D.C. appeals from the juvenile court’s December 5, 2019, dispositional order removing him from the home of his father, D.C., Sr. (Father) and placing him with his maternal aunt. At the dispositional hearing, the Department of Child and Family Services (DCFS) recommended that D.C. remain with Father, although it noted it had serious concerns about D.C.’s well-being in Father’s care. Accordingly, DCFS advised this court it did not intend to file a respondent’s brief. We granted a motion by L.M. (Mother) to be designated as the respondent.
