15-11-104. Applicability of Article 1, Chapter 11, Title 15


In a proceeding under this article, the provisions of Article 1 of this chapter shall apply unless in conflict with this article. In advance of any hearing or other proceeding to be held with respect to a child pursuant to this article, the court shall provide written notice or shall direct that a party shall provide written notice of such hearing or other proceeding, including their right to be heard at such hearing or other proceeding, to the foster parents of the child and to any preadoptive parents or relatives providing care for the child, consistent with the form and timing of notice to parties; provided, however, that this provision shall not be construed to require a foster parent, preadoptive parent, or relative caring for the child to be made a party to the hearing solely on the basis of such notice and right to be heard.
