In re C.M. CA2/2
J.V. (mother) and J.M. (father) appeal from the juvenile court’s order terminating their parental rights over their son C.M. (born July 2014). (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 366.26.) They contend the order must be reversed because the juvenile court failed to comply with the inquiry and notice requirements of the Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978 (ICWA). (25 U.S.C. § 1901 et seq.) We agree. We conditionally reverse the juvenile court’s order terminating parental rights and remand the matter for the limited purpose of directing the court to conduct a full inquiry and provide proper notice under the ICWA.
