In re S.M. CA3
In November 2017, the Agency filed a section 300 petition with respect to minor S.M. (then five years old) and his minor half-sibling (then two years old). The petition alleged that S.M. came within section 300, subdivisions (b)(1) [failure to protect] and (g) [no provision for support]. The petition alleged, among other things, that father’s whereabouts were unknown.
The November 2017 initial non-detaining report stated that on November 30, 2017, the social worker contacted Yolo County Child Support Services and learned that Father signed a declaration of paternity at Alta Bates Medical Center in Alameda County at the time of S.M.’s birth. The report also stated that the social worker submitted a due diligence search and attempted to contact father by phone and by mail.
