In re J.G. CA3
Appellant S.S., mother of minors J.G. and J.S., appeals from the juvenile court’s orders terminating parental rights and freeing the minors for adoption. (Welf. & Inst. Code, §§ 366.26, 395.) She contends the San Joaquin County Health and Human Services Agency (Agency) failed to comply with the inquiry and notice provisions of the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) (25 U.S.C. § 1901 et seq.) because it failed to inquire of one father (G.G., father of minor J.G., hereafter “father 1”) and failed to exercise reasonable diligence to locate and inquire of the other father (G.M., father of minor J.S., hereafter “father 2”). We agree and shall reverse the orders terminating parental rights and remand for further proceedings.
