In re V.C.

Minor was adjudicated neglected after being diagnosed with failure to thrive syndrome while in the care of her grandparents. Trial court entered dispositional order finding it was in the minor’s best interest to be made a ward of the court and granting guardianship to DCFS. Court further ordered the grandparents remain parties to the case and ordered DCFS to provide services. Appellate court reversed order permitting grandparents to remain parties explaining once guardianship was placed with DCFS they were no longer responsible relatives and were not proper parties to the case. The appellate court otherwise affirmed judgment of the trial court. (KNECHT and HOLDER WHITE, concurring)
