This title was first published in 2001. Making decisions about the
care and protection of children who appear before the courts is
complex. Attention must be paid to the best interests of the child,
the child's need for their family, community views on parenting,
and concern about welfare intrusion into family life. Magistrates
have a unique authority to make, or reject child protection orders
- yet the criteria they use to decide a protection order, how they
understand the information presented to them in court and the
factors that influence their discretion and decision-making have,
until now, been little known. Presenting the findings of a study
undertaken at Melbourne Children's Court, this book offers a
much-needed investigation of how magistrates actually make child
protection decisions. Case examples highlight this decision-making
and the book thus offers practical assistance to professionals
working with children in the legal process.
