FAMILY COURT SHOULD NOT HAVE DENIED THE PETITION RE THE CHILD’S SPECIAL IMMIGRANT JUVENILE STATUS WITHOUT HOLDING A HEARING TO DETERMINE WHETHER REUNITING THE CHILD WITH MOTHER WAS NOT VIABLE DUE TO NEGLECT OR ABANDONMENT (SECOND DEPT).

The Second Department ruled that Family Court should have held a hearing to determine whether the child could be reunited with his mother in order to further determine whether to make the findings necessary for the child to apply for special immigrant juvenile status (SIJS):

… [B]ased upon our independent factual review … , we find that the record establishes that the child meets the age and marital status requirements for special immigrant status, and the dependency requirement has been satisfied by the granting of the father’s guardianship petition … . Further, we determine that it would not be in the best interests of the child to be returned to El Salvador, where gang members had threatened to kill him and his sister … . However, the record is insufficient to determine whether reunification with the mother is not viable due to parental neglect or abandonment … .

Accordingly, we reverse the order, and remit the matter to the Family Court, Nassau County, for a hearing on the issue of whether reunification with the mother is not viable due to parental neglect or abandonment, and a new determination thereafter of the father’s motion for the issuance of an order, inter alia, making specific findings so as to enable the child to petition for SIJS … . Matter of A.M.G. v Gladis A.G., 2018 NY Slip Op 04321, Second Dept 6-13-18
