Litigation Letter
‘Potential’ or ‘prospective’ adoptor?
In re S (a Child: Adoption) CA TLR 27 October
The judge had found that the child was with a foster carer with a view to adoption by that carer. The judge found that although
the carer had not committed to adopting the child, she had not precluded it, which meant that she was a potential adoptor
and therefore the child had been placed for adoption.
