How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• quashing shelter order based upon mother’s homelessness due to her financial situation when there was no evidence that the Department had offered services to the mother to eliminate the need for sheltering the child
• homelessness derived solely from custodian’s financial inability does not constitute “abuse, neglect, or abandonment” necessary to justify child’s removal, unless Department offers services, and custodian rejects those services
