How soon after a dependency petition is filed must the adjudicatory hearing be held?

  1. ASAP practicable after dependency petition filed

  2. 21 days after shelter hearing

  3. 30 days after arraignment

  4. 21 days after arraignment

The correct answer is: 30 days after arraignment

A, B, and D are all incorrect because they refer to different hearings (practicable after dependency, after shelter, and after arraignment hearings) that do not pertain to the adjudicatory hearing, which is specifically mentioned in the question. The adjudicatory hearing must be held within 30 days after the arraignment hearing, so C is the only correct answer.
