Today in dependency court maddness, LA County Dept. of Children and Family Services (DCFS) recommended that the court remove my client's child from their physical custody after the parent tested positive for COVID-19. This is a non-offending parent. The judge ruled in favor of DCFS and detained.

Let that sink in . . . DCFS is asking for children to be removed from their parents custody due to COVID-19 despite the parent making the appropriate arrangements for their child.

Edit: To be clear, as the author of this post, I completely support taking appropriate precautions recommended by the CDC to prevent the spread of COVID-19.
