Per
Curium/Guardianship Reinstatement
Pro se father and grandparents appealed trial court’s
decision to reinstate guardianship rights of mother. The initial
change in custody had been accomplished through the probate court.
The Appellate court held that, per C.G.S. § 45a-611, “in order to
reinstate the parent as guardian, the court must find that the factors
that resulted in the removal of the parent have been resolved satisfactorily
and that it is in the best interests of the children to do so.”
The trial court heard evidence from the grandparents as well as
numerous professionals working with the family and ultimately concluded
that the mother had resolved the issues that led to the change in
guardianship. The appellate court found that there was evidence
in the record to support the trial court’s decision.
