In re A.S.
Father Marc S. (Marc) appeals from the disposition findings and order of the Mendocino County Juvenile Court relating to him and his two children, A.S. and M.S. The order followed the filing of a petition by the Mendocino County Department of Social Services (the Department) pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 300, subdivisions (b) and (g).The juvenile court ordered reunification services for mother Nicole V. (Nicole), but bypassed reunification services as to Marc, who was incarcerated in state prison at the time of the proceedings. Marc makes three arguments on appeal: (1) the jurisdictional allegations concerning domestic violence, his assault conviction, and his violent temper were unsupported by substantial evidence; (2) the juvenile court applied the wrong legal standard and therefore abused its discretion when it denied reunification services; and (3) the finding that reunification services for Marc would be detrimental to the children was unsupported by substantial evidence. Court reject each of Marcs arguments, and accordingly affirm.
