Roy N. v. Superior Court CA5
Petitioner, Roy N., is the biological father of now seven-month-old Jessica N. Following a contested dispositional hearing, the juvenile court found petitioner failed to meet his burden of proof under Adoption of Kelsey S. (1992) 1 Cal.4th 816 (Kelsey S.) that he qualified as Jessica’s presumed father, denied him reunification services under Welfare and Institutions Code section 361.5, subdivision (a) and set a section 366.26 hearing for May 8, 2018. Petitioner filed an extraordinary writ petition (Cal. Rules of Court, rules 8.450-8.452), seeking a stay of the section 366.26 hearing and an extraordinary writ directing the juvenile court to deem him Jessica’s presumed father and order reunification services. We deny the petition and request for a stay.
