In re Interest of Kane L.

by
The Supreme Court affirmed the juvenile court’s order adjudicating Kane L. and reversed the juvenile court’s order declining to adjudicate Carter L. after Kane and Carter were removed from their family home as a result of methamphetamine use by their parents. .The Court held (1) the county showed an evidentiary nexus between the use of methamphetamine and a risk of harm that would support adjudication, and therefore, the juvenile court did not err in adjudicating Kane; and (2) it was error not to adjudicate Carter because Carter was exposed to the same threat of present harm as Kane.
