Opinion
Opinion
Blease, J.
John D. appeals an order issued September 21, 1979, making findings under Welfare and Institutions Code section 361.5, nunc pro tune, in support of an order issued June 26, 1978, depriving him of the custody of his three minor children. We affirm the order in part.
Facts
On June 5, 1978, the Shasta County Welfare Department filed three petitions alleging that John D.’s three minor children (Michael, Samuel and John) came within the provisions of section 300, subdivision (a).
The petition involving Michael alleged that he was in need of “proper and effective parental care” because the “father is incarcerated in the Shasta County Jail, charged with armed robbery, and on 6/2/78, the mother came into the Shasta County Welfare Department and requested the minor be placed in foster home, as the mother and minor were living in a truck, mother is going to leave Shasta County and did not want the care and control of the minor. Services were offered of voluntary foster home placement, with mother staying in Shasta County, counseling on a weekly basis for return home of minor and mother refused these services.”
