STANDING-JUV.R. 2(Y)-SHELTER CARE-INTERLOCUTORY ORDER-DEPENDENCY ADJUDICATION-TIMELINESS OF APPEAL - Because step-mother was not a party to the juvenile court action according to Juv.R. 2(Y) and because she had not attempted to intervene as a party, she lacked standing to appeal. Appeal musst be dismissed where the dependency adjudication was not timely appealed. Because shelter care decisions are interlocutory orders that merge into dependency adjudications, and because the dependency adjudication was not timely appealed, we lack jurisdiction to review the trial court's shelter care orders.
