In re R.L. CA3
J.Q., mother of minor R.L. (mother), appeals from the juvenile court’s order terminating her parental rights and freeing the minor for adoption. (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 366.26.) Mother contends the juvenile court erred when it found the beneficial parental relationship exception (§ 366.26, subd. (c)(1)(B)(i)) and the sibling exception (§ 366.26, subd. (c)(1)(B)(v)) to adoption did not apply. She also argues respondent Sacramento County Department of Child, Family and Adult Services (Department) failed to comply with section 16002 by placing R.L. in a foster home separate from her siblings.
We conclude mother forfeited her challenge under section 16002 by failing to object on that basis below, and that the juvenile court properly terminated mother’s parental rights and found that no exception to the preferred plan of adoption applied. We shall affirm the juvenile court’s orders.
