Index the child's words already in the file
Key facts
- Human involvement
- RedLawyer-led
- How AI is used
- Copy each passage the file attributes to the child, with the date, the document and the page. Add nothing the file does not contain. Write no account for filing.
- What the lawyer must review
- You decide what is put before the court, and you write any account that is filed. Section 675(1) defines the case plan as a written document. Section 675(1)(B) says that, for a child who has attained 14 years of age, the plan and any revision or addition shall be developed in consultation with the child and, at the option of the child, with up to two members of the case planning team chosen by the child who are not a foster parent of, or caseworker for, the child. The same paragraph allows the State to reject a selected person for good cause to believe the person would not act in the best interests of the child. That consultation is about the case plan. The index is not that consultation, and it is not an account for the court. Apply the 14-year sentence only to a child who has attained 14. Section 671(a)(15)(A) makes the child's health and safety the paramount concern in determining reasonable efforts.
