In re William R. CA2/4
In this dependency action, appellant J.R. (mother) appeals from a juvenile court order terminating her parental rights to three of her four children: William R., C.R., and A.R. (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 366.26.) Appellant contends the juvenile court erred in not applying the benefit exception (§ 366.26, subd. (c)(1)(B)(i)), and that the matter must be remanded to allow respondent Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services (department) to comply with the juvenile court’s orders to provide proper notice under the federal Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978 (ICWA) (25 U.S.C.R. § 1901 et seq.). We agree only with the latter contention, and remand for further proceedings under ICWA and applicable state law (§ 224 et seq.). (See Tina L. v. Superior Court (2008) 163 Cal.App.4th 262, 268.)
