In re James J.
Appellant contends that the court "abused its discretion and violated [her] due process rights when it dismissed her attorney before obtaining a valid waiver of her right to counsel." She contends that the juvenile court's jurisdictional order adjudging her son James J. a dependent of the juvenile court lacked sufficient evidentiary support. As to the dispositional order, appellant contends that there was insufficient evidence for removal and that the order was an abuse of discretion. She also asserts a violation of the Indian Child Welfare Act. As explained below, court agree that the juvenile court failed to obtain a valid waiver of counsel.
