Question: 1 / 415

What leads to a permanency hearing in the order of dependency court proceedings?

Judicial Review

An expedited TPR or shelter petition filed

Initial JR followed by regular JRs

A permanency hearing in dependency court proceedings is called a Judicial Review (JR). In cases where the child cannot be returned to their parent or guardian within a reasonable amount of time, an initial JR may be followed by regular JRs to ensure the child’s well-being and permanency plans are being met. A Judicial Review is not the same as a disposition hearing after a consent admit, where a parent or guardian agrees to the dependency charges against them. Similarly, an expedited TPR (termination of parental rights) or shelter petition is not the same as a permanency hearing. Expedited TPRs are only used in extreme cases and shelter petitions are temporary placement before a decision is made in the dependency court proceedings. Therefore, the correct answer is C because regular JRs are necessary for a permanency hearing in order to ensure the child's safety and well-being.
