South Dakota Supreme Court reverses parental rights ruling July 16, 2021 GMT PIERRE, S.D. (AP) The South Dakota Supreme Court has ruled that a state judge and the Department of Social Services failed to consider improvements in a mother’s parenting skills and living conditions before terminating her rights to her child. The high court this week reversed a ruling by Circuit Judge Jon Erickson that assigned the toddler to the care of a relative and sent the case back to Beadle County for further action, KELO-TV reported. The Supreme Court said that because the girl was born to an American Indian mother, the state had a heightened responsibility for reunification under the Indian Child Welfare Act, a federal law that governs jurisdiction over the removal of Native American children from their families in custody, foster care and adoption cases.
