Hundreds of children awaiting adoption got their day in court and their forever families during the month of November.

First held in Los Angeles in 2002, these events help court in several counties stay connected to their community.

The Judicial Council on Thursday voted to proclaim November “Court Adoption and Permanency Month," when many California courts will dedicate extra courtrooms and judges to settling large numbers of adoption cases.

Judges now have discretion to backdate modification requests for child, spousal, partner, or family support orders during the state of emergency.
