The 14-year-old applicant child was admitted to a secure treatment program on an emergency basis.
She applied to the Child and Family Services Review Board for release.
At the hearing, after the respondent presented its evidence, the child brought a motion for non-suit.
The Board granted the motion, finding there was no evidence upon which it could reasonably be found that the child posed a substantial threat of serious bodily harm to herself or others, or that no less restrictive method of treatment was appropriate.
The Board ordered the child's release.
