Publisher Description
The mother of Baby Girl K filed a petition to revoke the written surrender of her child to a licensed*fn1 child placement agency, Burden Bearers-Social Services (Burden Bearers). The father of the child, as well as Burden Bearers, resisted the petition. The trial court sustained the challenge and ordered the child returned to her mother. Both the trial court and this court stayed the order pending a decision on appeal. By stipulated order, the prospective adoptive parents intervened after entry of judgment, and they joined Burden Bearers and the child's father in this appeal from that judgment. We reverse the trial court and hold that the surrender of the child was lawful and irrevocable.
