In re B.C. CA1/5
J.C. (Father) and B.K. (Mother) appeal from an order denying their petitions under Welfare and Institutions Code section 388 and terminating their parental rights as to their daughter B.C. (Minor). Father contends (1) the court, county counsel, and respondent Humboldt County Department of Health and Human Services (Department) violated their duties to conduct these proceedings in an expeditious, effective, and nonadversarial manner (§ 350, subd. (a)); (2) the court erred in denying Father’s section 388 petition; and (3) the order terminating Father’s parental rights must be reversed if we reverse the denial of his section 388 petition. Mother does not claim error in the denial of her section 388 petition or the termination of her parental rights, but she joins in Father’s opening brief on the ground that, if we reverse the termination of Father’s parental rights, we must reverse the termination of Mother’s parental rights also. We will affirm.
