Heading: Detention Hearing Issue Is Moot.

Text: Jennifer argues that the juvenile court erred in ordering the continued detention of her children. Jennifer asserts that the testimony offered at the detention hearing on August 18 and 25, 2004, was general and insufficient to support the order of continued detention. However, since we cannot undo the temporary detention order keeping the children in the custody of DHHS pending adjudication, the issue is moot and we need not consider this assignment of error. See In re Interest of Phoebe S. & Rebekah S., 11 Neb. App. 919, 664 N.W.2d 470 (2003). If Jennifer wished to challenge the temporary detention, she should have appealed from the order of continued detention prior to adjudication.
