In re Q.G. CA4/2
Defendant and appellant W.B. (Mother) has a history with child protective services, abusing controlled substances, and untreated mental health issues. As a result, Mother’s four children were removed from her care and custody, including her youngest daughter, six-year-old Q.G., who is the subject of this appeal. On appeal, Mother argues the juvenile court erred in: (1) failing to apply the sibling relationship exception to adoption pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 366.26, subdivision (c)(1)(B)(v); (2) failing to properly assess the maternal grandmother for Q.G.’s placement; and (3) finding the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) (25 U.S.C. § 1901 et seq.; Cal. Rules of Court, rule 5.480 et seq.) did not apply because there was insufficient proof the relevant tribes were properly noticed.
