In re Michael C.
Crystal W. timely appeals from the juvenile court order denying her presumed mother status for her grandson's daughter, Heather T., and father, Samuel C., had given custody of Michael to Crystal soon after he was born prematurely in May 2004. Mother died in a car accident in July 2005. Crystal was Michael's primary caretaker until he was detained by the Department of Public Social Services (DPSS) in October 2005.
Court hold the trial court properly denied Crystal's motion because substantial evidence supports the juvenile court's finding that Crystal cannot establish her status as Michael's presumed mother under Family Code section 7611, subdivision (d).
