(Respondent)

Natasha Razack, for the appellant

Anthony Macri, for the Childrens Aid Society of Toronto

Elizabeth McCarty, for the Office of the Childrens
    Lawyer

Heard: November 24, 2015

On appeal from the judgment of Justice Carolyn J. Horkins
    of the Superior Court of Justice, dated June 30, 2015.

ENDORSEMENT

[1]

D.D. initially sought an order on appeal setting aside an order of Crown
    wardship dated December 17, 2014 and in the alternative sought an order for access
    to her child.

[2]

At the hearing of the appeal, she abandoned her appeal against the Crown
    wardship order, and limited her appeal to the refusal to grant her access.

[3]

This child is now 10 years old and has been in the care of the
    Childrens Aid Society of Toronto since he was six years old. His greatest wish
    now is to be adopted.

[4]

In order that the child may be immediately placed for adoption, we dismiss
    the appeal from the Crown wardship order as abandoned.

[5]

We reserve on the issue of whether there should be an order for access,
    and our decision on access will be released when we have completed our
    deliberations on that issue.

    Laskin J.A.
