In re G.M. CA2/6
M.M. (Father) appeals an order terminating parental rights to his daughter, G. (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 366.26.) In case No. B282603, he appeals an order terminating parental rights to his son, B. B. is G.’s half brother and they are placed together with their prospective adoptive parents.
In our separate opinion in case No. B282603, we conclude that notice under the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA, 25 U.S.C. § 1901 et seq.) as to B. was defective but cured and that ICWA does not apply to B.
Here Father contends that if B. is an Indian child, his joint placement with G. may be jeopardized, and the juvenile court should consider whether the sibling relationship exception applies. (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 366.26, subd. (c)(1)(B)(v).) Our decision in case No. B282603 that ICWA does not apply to B. renders these contentions moot.
