What happens within 30 days of disposition after a TPR hearing if evidence is clear and convincing?

  1. Start a new case plan

  2. Hearing for amended case plan goal

  3. Return the child to the parents

  4. Terminate the case

The correct answer is: Hearing for amended case plan goal

Within 30 days of disposition after a TPR hearing where evidence is clear and convincing, the next step is to hold a hearing to determine an amended case plan goal. This is because the aim of the hearing is to review the case plan of the child and revise it accordingly based on the evidence provided. Option B is therefore the correct answer. Option A is incorrect because starting a new case plan is not the necessary course of action. Only the existing case plan needs to be revised. Option C is incorrect because returning the child to the parents is not a likely outcome when evidence of neglect or abuse has been established. Option D is incorrect because terminating the case entirely is not the expected outcome of a TPR hearing. The goal is to determine the best course of action for the child, not to simply end the case.
