Twomey v. J.G.

North Dakota Supreme Court March 19, 1986

Twomey v. J.G., 383 N.W.2d 53 (N.D. 1986)

1986 N.D. LEXIS 290

Erickstad, Gierke, Levine, Meschke, Vandewalle

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

The trial court determined that A.G. was an “unruly child” under N.D.C.C. § 27-20-02 for habitual truancy because she was kept from school for a home learning program supervised by her parents. Our recent decision, In the Interest of C.S., 382 N.W.2d 381 (N.D. 1986), held that a child cannot be found “unruly” in these circumstances. That decision is controlling and dispositive. Reversed.

ERICKSTAD, C.J., and MESCHKE, LEVINE, VANDEWALLE and GIERKE, JJ., concur.
