No. 84-582.

126 N.H. 53 (1985)

THERESA S. v. SUPERINTENDENT OF THE YOUTH DEVELOPMENT CENTER.

Supreme Court of New Hampshire.

February 8, 1985.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Family and Housing Law Clinic, of Concord, and Rogers J. Lang, of Manchester (Bruce E. Friedman and Mr. Lang on the brief, and Mr. Lang orally), for the plaintiff.

Stephen E. Merrill, attorney general (Bruce E. Mohl and Loretta S. Platt, assistant attorneys general, on the brief, and Ms. Platt orally), for the defendant.

BATCHELDER, J.

The plaintiff has been adjudicated a "child in need of services" (CHINS) within the meaning of RSA 169-D:2, IV (Supp. 1983). As such, she has repeatedly appeared before the Manchester District Court for truancy and related contempt of court proceedings.
