OPINION OF THE COURT
Philip C. Segal, J.
At issue in this child abuse proceeding is whether the court-assigned Law Guardian for the subject children may be permitted to withdraw from the continued representation of one child but not the other because of a conflict of interest between the two children. As follows, the court determines that the Law Guardian’s continued representation of either child presents an irreconcilable conflict of interest and creates an appearance of impropriety. Accordingly, the court directs that she and her law oflice have no further involvement with this matter.
