In Re WY

IN RE: W.Y.
Court of Special Appeals, Nazarian, July 26, 2016,
Juvenile – Prior to placement out of state, FL 5-607 requires that a court establish a factual record showing notice to guardian of said placement, opportunity for guardian to be heard, and a finding that equivalent facilities are not available in-state and that the placement is in the best interest of the child and will not produce undue hardship.

A Juvenile Court may neither require commitment to a specific facility or bar DJS from placement at a particular facility
