Child Protective Services Investigation - answer Mandated
and voluntary reporters contact CPS to make a referral.
After investigation of the allegation, CPS may either offer
services and counseling to the family or file a petition
requesting formal court action. A child may be taken into
temporary protective custody following an investigation,
but prior to the filing of a petition in court by voluntary
placement or by obtaining an apprehension order.
, Preliminary Hearing - answer The hearing must be brought
before the court with a petition within 24 hours if the child
is out of home custody, excluding Sundays and holidays
unless adjourned for good cause. See MCR 3.965(A)(1). At
this hearing, the court must determine if there is probable
cause to authorize the petition and whether it is contrary
to the welfare of the child to place the child in the
parents' care and if it is in the best interest of the child to
allow supervised and/or unsupervised parenting time.
Pretrial/Plea Proceeding - answer Timing is at the
discretion of the court. Once a plea is accepted by the
court by one or both parents, the court will have
jurisdiction over the minor child.
Trial - answer If a child is in placement, the trial must
commence as soon as possible, but no later than 63 days
after the child is placed by the court unless the trial is
postponed. See MCR 3.972(A).
If a child is NOT in placement, then the trial must be held
within 6 months after the filing of the petition unless
adjourned for good cause. See MCR 3.972(A).
At this phase, after hearing all testimony and reviewing all
evidence, the court will determine if there is enough
evidence to place the child under the jurisdiction of the
court or to dismiss the case.
The standard of proof is Preponderance of the Evidence.
