In re D.S. CA4/2
C.S., the mother of the children who are the subject of this dependency, appeals the termination of her parental rights. On appeal, her only contention is that the court failed to comply with the Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978 (ICWA). (25 U.S.C. § 1901 et seq.) In its letter brief filed in response to mother’s opening brief, respondent concedes the error. Our own review of the record demonstrates that the concession is warranted. Accordingly, we will reverse the judgment and remand the case so the court can comply with ICWA. In the event no tribe intervenes or the children are determined not to come within the purview of ICWA, the trial court will reinstate the judgment. The parties have agreed to the immediate issuance of the remittitur upon filing of this opinion.
