J.P. v. Superior Court CA2/4
Annabelle T. is the first child of father Jairo P. (father) and the eleventh child of mother Monica T. (mother). When mother tested positive for drugs at the time of Annabelle’s birth, hospital staff contacted the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS). DCFS detained Annabelle and placed her in foster care. Father was incarcerated at the time of the jurisdiction/disposition hearing three months later, and the court denied father reunification services. Father petitioned for extraordinary writ relief, and we set an order to show cause. We find that the court’s findings are supported by substantial evidence, and therefore deny the petition.
