In the Interest of Child B.B.O. Virginia Olds v. Gay Lakay Berry — Eid, J., concurring

Summary

Justice Eid concurred in the judgment but disagreed with the majority's categorical view that the circumstances by which a child comes into a nonparent's care can never matter to standing. She reasoned that a kidnapper should not obtain standing through criminally acquired custody and that granting such standing could raise constitutional concerns. Because the record showed the respondent's implied consent, acquiescence, and abandonment, she concluded that those concerns were not implicated here and would reverse the court of appeals on the plain-language ground.
