Represented by attorneys from <a href=\"https:\/\/pacificlegal.org\/case\/arizona-child-registry-due-process\/\">Pacific Legal Foundation<\/a> and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goldwaterinstitute.org\/case\/protecting-a-falsely-accused-moms-right-to-due-process\/\">Goldwater Institute<\/a>, she is asking a state court to give her due process before allowing the agency to blacklist her.<\/p>\n<p>According to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.goldwaterinstitute.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/Sarra-L-Stay-Motion-Conformed.pdf\">stay motion<\/a>, while Sarra L. was Thanksgiving shopping in 2020, she let her 7-year-old son and his 5-year-old friend play at a park. She knew the park was safe, and a friend of hers was there. While Sarra was in the store, the friend called and said a police officer was talking with the children. <\/p>\n<p>The officer\u2019s charges against Sarra \u2014 two counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor \u2014 were ultimately dropped by prosecutors, the motion said, but the Arizona Department of Child Safety investigated the matter and \u201cconcluded there was probable cause that Sarra neglected her son.\u201d DCS recommended putting Sarra\u2019s name in the Central Registry. <\/p>\n<p>The Central Registry is essentially a \u201cno-hire list,\u201d Adi Dynar, an attorney at Pacific Legal Foundation and the lead attorney for Sarra\u2019s case, told The Federalist. \u201cIf someone\u2019s name is on the list, no employer can hire them if, as part of their employment, they have to work with children.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said this would threaten Sarra\u2019s job, where she works with refugee families from Eastern Europe, including those affected by the Russia-Ukraine war. \u201cShe\u2019s working with them, getting them situated, getting them the services they need to rebuild their lives and flourish in America,\u201d Dynar said. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf her name appears in the list, then her job is in jeopardy, she can\u2019t work with refugees, and ultimately we are all impoverished as a result,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n<p>Before she could take the case to court, Dynar said Sarra appealed the DCS decision to an administrative law judge and then to the DCS director, a process he said has inherent constitutional problems. \u201cThere is no jury trial,\u201d Dynar said. \u201cThere is no cross-examination of witnesses. They do not follow any rules of evidence or any specific rules of procedure that we have come to recognize as necessary for complying with the due process clause.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo add insult to injury,\u201d he continued, \u201cthe standard of proof that is used in these cases is probable cause.\u201d Probable cause, according to the stay motion, is \u201cequivalent to a form of substantiated suspicion.\u201d Dynar said the process also violates the separation of powers in Arizona\u2019s Constitution, as executive officials exercise judicial power. <\/p>\n<p>Sarra\u2019s team filed the stay motion on July 15, asking that the court order DCS not to place her name on the registry \u2014 or to remove it if the agency already has \u2014 until the case is resolved. <\/p>\n<p>If Sarra wins, this could affect more than just her case. Her attorneys argue the administrative hearing process itself violates the separation of powers as well as Sarra\u2019s constitutional rights. \u201cIf we win that argument in the Court of Appeals in Arizona, we would be able to establish favorable precedent, at least in the state, that is critical of administrative adjudication,\u201d Dynar said. <\/p>\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\" \/>\n<p>\n  Olivia Hajicek is an intern at The Federalist and a junior at Hillsdale College studying history and journalism.
