Pretty sure that question was somewhere in the last few days, but
anyhow:

\version "2.19.5"
\score 
{ 
  <<
    \new StaffGroup
    { 
      << 
        \new Staff = "top" {
          c'1
          <<
            c'1
            \new Staff \with { alignAboveContext = "top" } {f' 1}
          >> }
        \new Staff { d'1 }
        \new Staff { e'1 }
      >>
    }
  >>
  \layout {}
  \midi {}
}
