Superior Court of Pennsylvania, 601 Commonwealth Ave #1600, Harrisburg, PA.
The Pennsylvania Superior Court has upheld a decision to reunify a child with his uncle, who argued that the child should be removed from the behavioral health facility in which he stayed because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
A three-judge panel consisting of Judges Mary Jane Bowes, Alice Dubow and Correale Stevens affirmed the ruling from a Clinton County Court of Common Pleas judge. The crux of the issue was the court’s finding that the county’s child welfare agency’s expert did not offer a credible opinion as to why the child, G.M.K., should remain in the facility.
