In re John P. CA2/7
Nicole P., mother of John P., now 14 years old, appeals from the order of the juvenile court denying her petition under Welfare and Institutions Code section 388 seeking a home-of-parent order or, as discussed at the hearing on the petition, restoration of reunification services for an additional six months to allow her to reunify with John. Nicole contends the court incorrectly believed it lacked authority to order additional reunification services at a post-permanency plan review hearing when the parent has already received 18 months of services and, consequently, failed to properly exercise its discretion in considering the merits of her request. Because the trial court properly based its denial of the petition on John’s best interests, we affirm.
