A Washington Order on Threshold Hearing (Petition for Reinstatement of Terminated Parental Rights) is a court order issued in the state of Washington that determines whether a parent's parental rights should be reinstated after they have been terminated. This order is issued by the court after a hearing is conducted to determine whether the parent meets the statutory requirements for reinstatement. The hearing is called the “threshold hearing” because the court must decide whether the parent meets the statutory criteria before any further proceedings can take place. There are two types of Washington Order on Threshold Hearing (Petition for Reinstatement of Terminated Parental Rights): 1) Reinstatement with Stipulation; and 2) Reinstatement without Stipulation. Reinstatement with Stipulation is when a parent has met the statutory criteria for their rights to be reinstated, but the court requires the parent to meet certain conditions before the rights are granted. These conditions are known as “stipulations” and can include things such as drug testing, parenting classes, or counseling. Reinstatement without Stipulation is when a parent has met the statutory criteria for their rights to be reinstated without any additional conditions. This type of order is granted without any additional conditions or stipulations. Both types of Washington Order on Threshold Hearing (Petition for Reinstatement of Terminated Parental Rights) are issued by the court after a hearing is conducted to determine whether the parent meets the statutory requirements for reinstatement.
