In the Matter of Desiree Roman, a Person Alleged to be a Juvenile Delinquent, Appellant

Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, First Department.

November 29, 1988


As conceded by respondent Corporation Counsel, the absence of a parent or guardian ad litem at appellant's fact-finding hearing constitutes reversible error, for the Law Guardian assigned to represent her at that proceeding could not act in loco parentis. (See, Matter of John L., 125 A.D.2d 472; Matter of Myacutta A., 75 A.D.2d 774.)
