Litigation Letter
Interim care order
In the matter of B (a child) sub nom KB (by her guardian)
B lived with her parents and her half-brother (T) who was removed from the home and accommodated in local authority care following
concerns about the care he was receiving at home. There was no suggestion of any need to remove B. However, the parents were
subsequently both arrested on suspicion of committing offences of child cruelty or wilful neglect in relation to T. As a result,
B was also removed into foster care. The judge found that there was no evidence yet available to see if there would be harm
to B if she were returned.
