R.R. v. Superior Court CA6

Opinion
I. INTRODUCTION
R.R., the father of the child at issue in this juvenile dependency matter, has filed a petition for extraordinary writ challenging the juvenile court’s order at the six-month review hearing terminating family reunification services and setting the matter for a Welfare and Institutions Code section 366.261 permanency planning hearing. Father, who has been in custody during the entirety of the juvenile dependency proceedings, contends that there is not substantial evidence to support the juvenile court’s finding that he was provided reasonable reunification services.
1 All further statutory references are to the Welfare and Institutions Code. We conclude that the record does not contain substantial evidence that reasonable services were provided or offered to father. We will therefore grant father’s petition for extraordinary writ. Father also seeks an immediate stay of the section 366.26 hearing, which is scheduled for March 19, 2025. (Cal. Rules of Court, rule 8.452(f).) Father’s request for a stay of the section 366.26 hearing is mooted by this court’s grant of writ relief.
