District Court of Appeal of Florida


T.G. v. Dep't of Children & Families, 1D05-5067

Adjudications of dependency of parents' children are reversed where the orders adjudicating the children dependent were not supported by competent substantial evidence since the evidence failed to establish that one instance of corporal discipline constituted abuse, or that the father was addicted to controlled substances or that his previous use affected the children.
