Cases Won by Non-Parent

I am trying to search for any cases/hearings that were won by Non-parent vs. Grandparent/Parent regarding custody of children. Family has a history of child abuse/neglect/abandonment. Children were abandoned with me for over 2 years and court gave them back because I was not kin. My case is in appeals. Do you know of any such cases?
