Text: The three cases before us traveled the same path to this Court. In each of them, upon petition of the State's Attorney for Baltimore City, the court adjudicated the named child to be delinquent. Upon a disposition hearing in each case, the court, by means of an identically-worded printed form entitled Order for Commitment of Juvenile, committed the child over the signature of the presiding judge, to the care and custody of the Maryland Department of Juvenile Services. It further ordered that the child be delivered to the appropriate Maryland Department of Juvenile Services facility. [5] At the bottom of each form, however, there appeared in handwriting over the signature of the judge, the flat command, Respondent to be placed at the Glen Mills School. Glen Mills School is a private facility located in Pennsylvania.
