§ 1032 Persons who may originate proceedings

Here's a plain English summary of this rule:

This rule explains who is allowed to start a child protective case in family court. Only two types of people or groups can do this.

First, a child protective agency can file the case. This is usually a government agency that works to protect children from abuse or neglect. Second, a person can file the case if the court specifically tells them to do so.

This means a regular person, like a neighbor or relative, cannot walk into court and start this type of case on their own. They would need to report their concerns to a child protective agency instead, and let that agency decide whether to bring the case to court.
