Re S-H (a child) (placement order) [2008] EWCA Civ 493, [2008] All ER (D) 176 (May)
When deciding whether to grant leave to a parent to apply for revocation of an order placing a child for adoption, the court should ask itself the question whether, in all the circumstances, including the parent’s prospect of success in securing revocation, and the child’s interests, leave should be given.
