Phillip S. v. Superior Court
Appellant seeks extraordinary writ review of an order of the juvenile court bypassing reunification services and setting the matter for a hearing terminating parental rights of Felicia S. (Welf. and Inst. Code, SS 361.5, subd. (b)(6); 366.26; Cal. Rules of Court, former rule 38.1, now rule 8.452.) Appellant challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support the juvenile court's findings that 1) he had sexually abused Felicia's half brother, Charlie; and 2) it would not benefit Felicia to pursue reunification services. Father requests that court vacate the order setting the 366.26 hearing and remand the matter for a hearing so he may offer the testimony of a rebuttal witness. Court deny his petition.
