In a recent court hearing, discussions centered around the case of Mr. Sherwood, who is currently prohibited from contact with his children due to a court order. The primary goal for the children remains reunification, despite existing barriers, including historical incidents of abuse and the current no-contact order.

During the proceedings, it was noted that Mr. Sherwood had been proactive in seeking services, having completed a case service plan with a caseworker. However, there is uncertainty regarding his participation in counseling and parenting classes, as the caseworker had not met with him recently. The court was informed that Mr. Sherwood had requested psychological services, but these had not yet been arranged.

The caseworker also highlighted the lack of services currently in place for the children, stating that attempts to contact the victim's family had been unsuccessful. While the children's mother expressed a desire for counseling for them, the children have indicated a wish to see their father.

The court report, which included various attachments such as police reports and friend of the court documents, was admitted without objection. The hearing concluded with no further questions from the parties involved, as the court continues to navigate the complexities of this sensitive case.
