When a case completely falls apart in court, ACS offers what is called an ACD to the parent. This is an Adjournment in Contemplation of Dismissal. This means that if the parent abides by certain ACS demands the case will be dismissed after 6 months or a year. This can be a very tricky offer. It may appear like the parent is getting a break, but in fact, ACS is setting the parent up to fail and violate the terms. Make sure to have your attorney review the terms carefully and understand exactly what ACS is demanding. Brooklynacslawyer.com
