In re JNS

Hamilton County Family Court
Case No. F17-334X Judicial Entry, Slip Opinion (Feb. 16, 2018)

Facts

In February 2017, the Hamilton County Department of Jobs and Family Services (HCJFS) (plaintiff) sought an interim order of custody over a child, JNS. HCJFS and the parents of JNS (defendants) reached an agreement in which the parents agreed to the preexisting safety plan. The parents agreed to leave JNS with the maternal grandparents and to make the child available for therapy with the Cincinnati Children’s Hospital. In April 2017, HCJFS filed a complaint alleging dependency, neglect, and abuse and seeking temporary custody of the child. By stipulation, the parties agreed to an adjudication of dependency, stipulating that HCJFS had temporary custody over JNS and ordering JNS to remain with the maternal grandparents. HCJFS filed case plans for JNS, stating Cincinnati Children’s Hospital would like to begin hormone therapy for JNS to treat gender dysphoria and suicidal ideation. The parents objected to these case plans, and the court held a hearing, even though HCJFS withdrew the case plans for hormone treatment. The parents and HCJFS both presented testimony, with the HCJFS testimony focusing on the treatment of JNS’s gender dysphoria. The Hamilton County Juvenile Court entered the final determination of custody after the relevant hearings.
