In the fall of 2024, the Arizona Department of Child Safety (DCS) mailed letters to parents who once had an open dependecy and/or severance case.

Cost Bond
If you are posting a supersedeas bond, you do not have to post a cost bond. This is money that is set aside to reimburse the others if you lose your appeal. If you are unable to pay the cost bond, you can file a waiver to waive or reduce the costs involved.
Cost bonds DO NOT apply to Orders of Protection and Injunctions Against Harassment.
