In re C.S.
Jo Ann S. appeals from a February 2007 order selecting legal guardianship as a permanent plan for her son, C.S. (Welf. & Inst. Code, 366.26, subds. (c)(4)(A) & (d).)[1] C.S. has been a dependent child since 2001. He suffers from Aspergers Syndrome and, though high-functioning, his behaviors were once unpredictable and aggressive. Meanwhile, appellant suffered from depression and anxiety and could not manage her son. In 2003, the juvenile court selected long-term foster care as a permanent plan for C.S. As of 2006, appellant had ameliorated the conditions leading to C.S.s dependency and wished to resume custody. However, C.S., by then a teenager, had bonded with his foster parents and wanted them to become his legal guardians. This led to contested proceedings in August 2006, following which the juvenile court, first, denied appellants petition to regain custody ( 388) and then, set a section 366.26 hearing to consider legal guardianship as a permanent plan for C.S. We affirmed the courts orders in an unpublished opinion, Jo Ann S. v. Superior Court (Nov. 20, 2006,F051132 [nonpub. opn.]). Having reviewed appellants letter brief and the record herein, Court conclude appellant raises no arguable issue regarding the courts decision.
