Mother of forcibly removed newborn seeks damages against Child and Family Agency

A mother whose newborn baby boy was forcibly removed from her at a maternity hospital due to serious concerns of possible risk to his health and life if she left hospital with him is claiming damages against the Child and Family Agency.
Mr Justice Seamus Noonan, who yesterday overturned the emergency care order under which the day old baby boy was forcibly removed early this month, said he will deal with the damages matter on December 12.
