In re S.G.
R.H., mother of S. G., appeals from the juvenile courts order terminating her parental rights pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 366.26. Appellant claims that because the juvenile court and respondent Sonoma County Human Services Department (the Department) failed to comply with the notice provisions of the Indian Child Welfare Act of 1978 (ICWA; 25 U.S.C. 1901 et seq.), the order terminating her parental rights must be reversed.
Court agree with appellant that the Department failed to provide to the juvenile court information on which the court could base a decision as to whether proper notice had been given to the Indian tribes. Court therefore reverse and remand for such a determination.
