ORDERS:
O R D E R
The respondent filed a motion to dismiss this appeal, based upon a Family court order dismissing
the appellant's child protective services (CPS) appeal. The respondent argued that the ruling of
the Family court collaterally estopped this Court from hearing this appeal.
After hearing arguments from counsel via conference call and reviewing the Family court order,
this Court concurs that it is collaterally estopped from hearing this appeal. This appeal is
accordingly dismissed.
AND IT IS SO ORDERED.
