In re K.K. CA4/1
S.K. (mother) appeals the orders summarily denying her Welfare and Institutions Code section 388 petitions. We conclude the juvenile court properly exercised its discretion when it found mother failed to make a prima facie showing (1) her circumstances were changed, and (2) it was in her children's best interest to place them in her care and/or order additional reunification services, given that she had been a drug addict for about 11 years; that she had a previous dependency and had relapsed; that she had neither engaged in any court-ordered services nor visited her children during the reunification period; and that she filed her petitions on the "eve" of the section 366.26 hearing after maintaining sobriety for a relatively short period of time. Affirmed.
