In re Ar.C. CA2/5
S.C. (mother) appeals from the juvenile court’s order terminating her parental rights to her daughter, Ar.C. (the child), contending the court erred when it found that the parental-benefit exception to the termination of parental rights in Welfare and Institutions Code section 366.26, subdivision (c)(1)(B)(i) did not apply; and (2) the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services (the Department) failed to perform its duty of inquiry under the federal Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA, 25 U.S.C. § 1901 et seq.). We dismiss mother’s appeal, in part, and conditionally reverse and remand, in part, with directions to comply with ICWA.
