373 A.2d 558 | Vt. | 1977
This case comes to us as an appeal from a juvenile court order transferring residual parental rights of the infant J.A.S. to the Commissioner of Social and Rehabilitation Services. Custody of the child had been placed in the Commissioner of Social Welfare by a juvenile court order dated May 14, 1971. In the action culminating in this appeal, the Department of Social Welfare moved in July, 1973, to modify the juvenile court order by transferring residual parental rights to the Commissioner.
The order terminating parental rights is reversed; custody remains in the Commissioner of Social Welfare pursuant to the juvenile court order dated May II, 1971.
