FAMILY COURT SHOULD HAVE GRANTED PETITION FOR GUARDIANSHIP AND MADE FINDINGS ALLOWING CHILD TO PETITION FOR SPECIAL IMMIGRANT JUVENILE STATUS.

The Second Department, reversing Family Court, determined the petition for guardianship of the child should have been granted, and Family Court should have made the findings necessary for the child to petition for Special Immigrant Juvenile Status (SIJS):

Here, the child is under the age of 21 and unmarried, and since we have appointed Daniel J. K. as the child's guardian, the child is dependent on a juvenile court within the meaning of 8 USC § 1101(a)(27)(J)(i) … . We further find that the record fully supports the child's contention that his reunification with the father is not a viable option due to parental neglect … . Lastly, the record reflects that it would not be in the child's best interests to be returned to El Salvador. Matter of Axel S.D.C. v Elena A.C., 2016 NY Slip Op 04046, 2nd Dept 5-25-16
