Description
MEMORANDUM AND ORDER Frank and Patricia ""AA"" are the parents of four children named Russell, William, Mary and Hetty. These children were regularly left unsupervised in the home while both parents worked. Russell and William, individually, had occasionally engaged in sexual acts with either Mary or Hetty over a four-year period. After discovering that these acts had taken place between the four children, petitioner commenced this proceeding pursuant to Family Court Act article 10 against both parents and their two sons seeking a finding that Mary and Hetty are abused and neglected children. Prior to commencement of the proceeding, the State Police arrested Russell and William and each gave a statement to the police describing their sexual acts with their sisters. On April 6, 1990, at the initial appearance before Family Court, the attorneys representing Russell and William requested that the court remove their respective clients as respondents in the proceeding on the ground that neither was a ""person legally responsible"" within the meaning of Family Court Act ? 1012 (g). Petitioner opposed both motions on the grounds that they were premature because no fact-finding had been conducted or completed. Family Court initially reserved decision on the motions and later ordered that Russell and William be removed as respondents and the petition be amended to add them as neglected children. This appeal by petitioner ensued.
