In re B.R. CA2/3
Javier R. (father) appeals from the juvenile court’s disposition orders declaring his two children, J.R. and B.R., dependents of the court and removing them from his custody. Father raises several claims on appeal: (1) insufficient evidence supports the court’s jurisdiction finding that father’s acts of domestic violence against mother placed the children at serious risk of physical harm; (2) insufficient evidence supports the court’s order removing the children from father’s custody; (3) the court erred in issuing a restraining order precluding father from contacting mother and the children outside of court-approved visits; and (4) the Department of Children and Family Services (Department) failed to conduct an adequate initial inquiry into the children’s possible Indian ancestry under the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) (25 U.S.C. § 1901 et seq.) and related state laws implementing ICWA (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 224 et seq.).
