Karen O. v. Superior Court
In a petition for an extraordinary writ pursuant to California Rules of Court rule 8.450, the mother in this juvenile dependency case challenges orders after a contested six month review hearing terminating reunification services and setting a hearing to select a permanent plan under Welfare and Institutions Code section 366.26. The court found that returning the child to her parents would create a substantial risk of detriment to her safety, protection and physical or emotional well being; that the mother had not made substantive progress on her reunification plan; that there was not a substantial probability that the child would be returned home if further services were offered; and that reasonable services had been provided or offered. The mother contends that these findings were not supported by the evidence. After reviewing the record, Court conclude that substantial evidence supports the courts findings. Court therefore deny the writ petition.
