In re S.F. CA4/2
Appellant C. H., (father), appeals from the juvenile court’s order terminating his parental rights to three children, pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 366.26. (§ 395, subd. (a)(1).) The only issue, which respondent concedes, is that DPSS did not comply with the notice requirements of the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA). Because there is no dispute between the parties, we reverse and remand the judgment terminating parental rights, based on the failure to provide the required ICWA notice, and direct the trial court to order DPSS to comply with ICWA’s notice provisions. If after such compliance, the children are not claimed as Indian, the judgment shall be reinstated. (In re Francisco W. (2006) 139 Cal.App.4th 695, 711.)
