    FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN AND FAMILY SERVICES, Petitioner, v. S.D., Respondent.
    No. 1D05-5800.
    District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.
    Feb. 27, 2006.
    Judith Levine, Assistant General Counsel, Tallahassee and Sondra R. Schwartz, Assistant General Counsel, Orange Park, for Petitioner.
    Darla Jean Christopher, Macclenny, for Respondent.
   PER CURIAM.

Because the lower court violated the Interstate Compact on the Placement of Children, codified at section 409.401, Florida Statutes (2005), by placing the child, M.T. with her mother, S.D., in Georgia, which is not a “visit” under ICPC Regulation No. 9, without obtaining the consent of the appropriate public authorities of Georgia, we GRANT the petition for writ of certiorari, vacate the order, and remand for further proceedings. See H.P v. Dep’t of Children & Families, 838 So.2d 583 (Fla. 5th DCA 2003).

ERVIN, WOLF and DAVIS, JJ., concur.
