Our View: Court holding hearing on guardian ad litem reform
There are enough complaints to warrant a review of this vital child welfare program.
The toughest legal cases are family cases heard in district courts
across Maine. Behind closed doors, decisions that profoundly affect
children and their parents are decided, and at least one party is sure
to walk away unhappy.
This week, the guardian ad litem
program will be the subject of a rare public hearing before Maine's
Chief Justice Leigh Ingalls Saufley.
