Decided March 8, 1982.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Matthew B. Bogin, Washington, D. C., for appellee. Diane M. Smith, Washington, D. C., submitted the brief for appellee.

Before NEWMAN, Chief Judge, and KERN and FERREN, Associate Judges.

NEWMAN, Chief Judge:

The issue presented by this appeal is whether the Family Division of the Superior Court has the authority to order a specific placement for a delinquent juvenile who is on aftercare status, under the custody of the District of Columbia Department of Human Services (DHS), and to order the agency to pay the expenses of that placement. DHS appeals from such an order, which directs that J.A.G. be placed in a private school in Atlanta, Georgia.
