AC47268, AC47368 - In re Andrew C. ("These appeals arise from a child protection matter concerning the care and custody of the
minor child, Andrew C. Andrew and his intervening
foster parents separately appeal, in Docket Nos. AC
47368 and AC 472681 respectively, from the judgment of the trial court, granting the motion, filed by the
respondent father of Andrew, Chester C. (respondent),
to open and vacate the court’s judgment, rendered
almost two years earlier, granting the foster parents’
motion to transfer guardianship of Andrew to themselves. We agree with the trial court that the foster
parents did not have standing to intervene in this action
and, thus, that the court did not have subject matter
jurisdiction to adjudicate their motion to transfer guardianship of Andrew. We therefore affirm the judgment
of the trial court.")
