J.S. v. Florida Department of Children & Families
Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided November 22, 2010 · Marstiller, Rowe, Webster
48 So. 3d 153; 2010 Fla. App. LEXIS 17928 (Southern Reporter, Third Series)

J.S. v. Florida Department of Children & Families

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Appellant seeks review of a final order adjudicating her child a dependent child. The Department of Children and Family Services and Guardian ad Litem both appropriately concede that the evidence presented at the adjudicatory hearing was legally insufficient to support a determination of dependency. Accordingly, we reverse the adjudication of dependency, and remand for further proceedings consistent with this opinion.

REVERSED and REMANDED, with directions.

WEBSTER, ROWE, and MARSTILLER, JJ., concur.
