A JUVENILE COURT MAY ASSIGN COUNSEL FEES AND COSTS AMONG THE
PARTIES TO A CASE AS THE JUVENILE COURT CONSIDERS APPROPRIATE AND THE
PARTIES' ECONOMIC SITUATIONS ALLOW.
COMMITTEE NOTE: This section is derived from the second sentence of
former FL § 5-323(d) but revised to allow assessment of costs, in addition
to counsel fees, and to require consideration of the "economic situations" of
the parties.
Defined terms: "Juvenile court" § 1-101
"Party" § 5-301
5-310. APPEAL.

(2) IN AN INTERLOCUTORY APPEAL, FROM A DENIAL OF THE RIGHT TO
PARTICIPATE IN AN ADOPTION CASE UNDER PART III OF THIS SUBTITLE; OR

revised to cover guardianship cases under this subtitle but limit
interlocutory appeals to issues as to participation in a guardianship case or
an adoption case before termination of parental rights.
In item (3) of this section, the former word "decree" is omitted as
unnecessary in light of the word "order".
