In re Leonardo D. CA2/8
Daniel D. (Father) appeals from the juvenile court’s jurisdiction and removal orders, contending the petition failed to state a cause of action and there is insufficient evidence to support the sustained allegations related to sexual grooming. We conclude that Father has forfeited his claim that the sexual grooming allegation does not state a cause of action under Welfare and Institutions Code section 300, subdivision (b)(1). We exercise our discretion to consider Father’s claim of insufficient evidence concerning the grooming allegation and modify the allegation to strike the references to sexual grooming.
We affirm the juvenile court’s orders as modified.
