This form allows a nonminor (a young adult in the foster care system, typically ages 18-21) to agree that a court can hold a hearing to decide what happens next with their case without them being present. A dependency court uses this form when the nonminor consents to proceed with a disposition hearing regarding their ongoing foster care status and services.
