Tammy W. v. Superior Court CA5
Petitioner Tammy W. (mother) seeks an extraordinary writ from the juvenile court’s order setting a Welfare and Institutions Code section 366.26 hearing as to her now 14-year-old daughter, A.W. On September 20, 2017, at an uncontested 12-month review hearing (§ 366.21, subd. (f)(1)), the court terminated mother’s reunification services and set a section 366.26 hearing to implement a permanent plan. Mother was not present at the hearing and her court-appointed trial counsel could not account for her absence. The court, not finding good cause to continue the hearing, issued its ruling.
