In re Andy C.
In this dependency case (Welf. & Inst. Code, 300 et seq.), Esmeralda B., the mother of dependent minor children (Mother), has filed a petition for extraordinary writ, seeking relief from an order that set a section 366.26 hearing to determine a permanent plan for the children. (Cal. Rules of Court, rules 5.600, 8.450, 8.452.) The hearing was set after it was determined by the trial court that the courts home of parent order (Mother), which was made 16 months after the children were declared dependent children and custody was taken from Mother, was no longer effective to protect or rehabilitate the children.
Mother contends (1) she did not receive a disposition hearing before the court set the section 366.26 hearing, (2) she was not given proper notice that reunification services might not be offered, or would be denied, (3) she was wrongfully denied reunification services, and (4) the trial court should not have sustained the allegations in the petition that form the basis of the courts decision to set the section 366.26 hearing.
Court's review of the lengthy record convinces us that none of Mothers contentions has merit. Therefore, Court deny her petition.
