In re J.G. CA4/2
Defendant and appellant L.M. (mother) appeals from an order summarily denying her Welfare and Institutions Code section 388 petitions for modification filed in juvenile dependency proceedings while the permanent plan selection hearing was pending as to her two children, J.G (age 6) and I.G. (age 8). She argues that the juvenile court erred when it failed to order an evidentiary hearing to determine whether to order family reunification services and increased visitation. We hold that the juvenile court did not abuse its discretion in denying mother an evidentiary hearing because she failed to make a prima facie showing of changed circumstances or that the relief she sought would be in the children’s best interest. We affirm.
