In re Marcus C. CA5
Two-year-old Marcus and one-year-old A.C. were removed from the custody of their mother in December 2018 because she was a substance abuser and failed to supervise and properly care for them. Law enforcement found the children several times playing along the highway unattended and the condition of the family home was substandard. Father was incarcerated with a release date of November 2023. The children were placed together in foster care.
The juvenile court exercised its dependency jurisdiction over the children in February 2019, ordered the mother to participate in reunification services but denied father services because of the length of his incarceration. (§ 361.5, subd. (e)(1).)
At the six-month review hearing in July 2019, the juvenile court terminated mother’s reunification services and set a section 366.26 hearing for November 6, 2019. Neither parent filed an extraordinary writ petition.
