In re Alexander P.
The procedural history of this dependency proceeding and further information about the relationship between Alexander P. (the minor) and appellant Michael P. are set out in our earlier opinion ruling on two prior consolidated appeals, In re Alexander P. (2016) 4 Cal.App.5th 475 (Alexander P.).
The minor, who is now five years old, became the subject of a dependency petition two years ago, when he was three. (Alexander P., supra, 4 Cal.App.5th at p. 479.) Michael is not the minor’s biological father, but he helped raise the minor from his birth in February 2012 until January 2013, when the minor’s mother (Mother) took steps to sever ties with Michael. (Id. at pp. 480–481.) Thereafter, Michael continued to have joint custody of the minor and frequent visits until April 2014, when Michael’s visitation was reduced to twice weekly supervised visits due to concerns about his domestic violence against Mother. (Id. at p. 481.) Even that visitation ended in August 201
