M.C. v. Superior Court CA3

(petitioner), the guardian and grandmother of the minor, seeks an extraordinary writ to vacate the juvenile court’s orders made at the dispositional hearing terminating her guardianship and setting a hearing pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 366.26. (Cal. Rules of Court, rule 8.452.)
