An EXTREMELY helpful thing folks can do, if they live near a federal courthouse, is volunteer for Habeas Dockets. Docs in habeas cases aren't viewable online by default. But they are at courthouses. This site makes them available/searchable for free. Helps lawyers a lot

Just to clarify, I assumed the judge agreed to dismiss the charges after pretrial probation due to a plea agreement because that's how that's usually handled. But looking at the dockets, it looks like there was no plea agreement.
They are trying to get DCF to return the teen to their custody even though the teen has a restraining order against them that they agreed to abide by as part of a plea agreement. They're also trying to stop DCF from helping the teen get testosterone.
