In re C.C., So. C., and Sa. C. 

At a dispositional hearing in a juvenile neglect case, trial court found Respondent grandmother, a party to the case because of her status as the legal guardian for two of the three children, unable to care for them, and that best interest of the children would be jeopardized if they remained in her custody, because she allowed their mother, who was a known substance abuser, to care for the children from the end of their school day until she returned home from work. Court improperly dismissed Respondent grandmother as a party from the case, as this dismissal denied services for her to become able to exercise guardianship over the children. The legislature intended for a minor's legal guardian to remain a party throughout the proceedings, regardless of whether the court names DCFS as guardian. (TURNER and MYERSCOUGH, concurring.)
