To eliminate the option of admitting a child to the Michigan Children's Institute (MCI) under a "commitment by observation order." MCI is the legal guardian for children whose parental rights have been terminated, and is authorized to consent to adoption, emancipation, and marriage of MCI wards. The bill is part of a legislative package comprised of House Bills 6008 to 6010 designed to establish procedures in contested adoption cases to ensure that adoption decisions are final and all interested parties have had an opportunity to participate.
