In re V.S. CA2/5
Father appeals from the juvenile court’s orders (1) sustaining a Welfare and Institutions Code section 342 supplemental petition as to his twelve-year-old son, (2) removing son from his custody, and (3) terminating jurisdiction with a family law order granting joint legal custody, sole physical custody to mother, and unmonitored visits to father.
Father engaged in criminal activities throughout the dependency case, was often absent from the home, thrusted childcare responsibilities on other family members without notice, and was incarcerated at the time jurisdiction was terminated. Father does not dispute these facts but argues he was able to provide supervision and protection for son, and son was not at substantial risk of serious physical harm in his care. Accordingly, he asserts insufficient evidence supports the jurisdiction order and he should have been granted joint physical custody. We affirm.
