    Default Re: Can Your Children be Kept From Your Home After a Removal for Unrelated Reasons

    The case was not thrown out, because the court is continuing to exercise jurisdiction over the children. If the case had been thrown out, the children would have been returned. Perhaps what you mean to say is that the court did not make a finding of culpable neglect in relation to your child's getting out of your home, but did find that your home was dangerous due to the presence of drugs and paraphernalia, or due to your use of drugs.

    Once you trigger protective proceedings, the court can consider all aspects of your home and parenting that endanger your children -- and, also, the court may not find that your drug use is unrelated to the incident of neglect that led to the involvement of protective services, as neglecting to keep a proper watch on children is often associated with intoxication.
