When is the Legal Sufficiency or Determination of Dependency staffing held?

  1. After the initial assessment

  2. After the shelter hearing and before arraignment

  3. Before permanency hearing

  4. After the permanency hearing

The correct answer is: After the shelter hearing and before arraignment

The Legal Sufficiency or Determination of Dependency staffing is a meeting held by child welfare agencies to determine if there is enough evidence to establish legal dependency for a child. This meeting is usually held after the shelter hearing but before the arraignment hearing, as this is when the case is still being considered by the court and the child is still in temporary custody. Therefore, options A, C, and D are incorrect because they are all after the arraignment hearing, which means the child has already been placed in permanent custody.
