In re Trevor M.
During the dependency proceedings in this case, the Orange County Social Services Agency (SSA) submitted a substantiated report of child abuse to the Department of Justice (DOJ) for inclusion in the Child Abuse Central Index (CACI). When the parties stipulated to dismissal of the dependency petition, without prejudice, mother requested that the juvenile court order the report be designated as unfounded, rather than substantiated. SSA objected on the ground that administrative grievance review procedures available to mother had not been pursued. The juvenile court granted mother's request and ordered SSA to change the report from substantiated to unfounded.
