On 5 October 2018 the County Social Welfare Board ( fylkesnemnda for barnevern og sosiale saker ) decided to deprive the applicant of parental responsibilities in respect of her son, born in 2013, and to authorise the child’s adoption by his foster parents. On 8 February 2019 the City Court ( tingrett ) upheld the decision. On 10 May 2019 the High Court ( lagmannsrett ) refused the applicant leave to appeal against the City Court’s judgment. On 18 June 2019 the Supreme Court Appeals Leave Committee ( Høyesteretts ankeutvalg ) dismissed the applicant’s appeal against the High Court’s decision.   Relying on Article 8 of the Convention, the applicant submits that the decision to deprive her of parental responsibilities in respect of her son and to authorise the child’s adoption entailed an unnecessary interference with her right to respect for family life.   QUESTION TO THE PARTIES Has there been a violation of the applicant’s right to respect for her family life, contrary to Article   8 of the Convention? (See, for example, Strand Lobben and Others v. Norway [GC], no. 37283/13, 10   September 2019.)
