My question involves adoption law for the State of: NC
(Relative) Adoption completed, then set-aside after 2 months due to no notification of a relative-stranger who is a GP. Adoption put in place on two other ocassions, then best interest hearing. Hearing resulted in "If adoption is allowed, the Court does not find credible that the adopting parents would allow any visitation with (stranger) GP"
Nearly a year later, at a hearing for different issue, Judge states that the adoption should have been dismissed within the Order resulting from the best interest hearing. It was an "oversite" on the Judge's part. He chose to dismiss with prejudice.
Question: Does this simply mean that we cannot try later to adopt using the original file case numbers...OR does this mean that we can NEVER file to adopt the children ever, even beginning anew?
Thanks. Advice welcome
