In re LAUREN PART II
Mother who lost custody after she was extradited to Florida and incarcerated received adequate reunification services where Department of Children and Family Services worked with mother and family in Florida to remedy problems leading to loss of custody but was thwarted by delay of Florida child welfare officials. Dependency court did not abuse its discretion in refusing to place child with aunt in Florida because placement was not in child's best interest where aunt that child had never met was reluctant to agree to adoption and was willing to forego federal funds child might need to address future disabilities; Florida child welfare officials placed bureaucratic over practical concerns; and child spent almost three years bonding with foster family.
