ANGELA L.
Petitioner and
Respondent,
v.
TRINA M.,
Objector and
Appellant.
Trina M.
appeals from an order appointing Angela L. as guardian of her daughter, Shayla
M. Her showing on appeal is
deficient. We therefore affirm the
order.
background
Trina M.
gave birth to her daughter while in prison.
The father is unknown, and Trina M. placed the infant in Angela L.'s
care pending her release. But no release
date became imminent and Angela L. could not secure medical insurance for the
child because she was neither a relative nor guardian. She successfully petitioned to be appointed a
temporary guardian. Trina M. contested
Angela L.'s petition to be appointed a permanent guardian and nominated
another. At the hearing on the competing
petitions on August 28, 2009,
Trina M. was represented by counsel who contested the accuracy of a report from
the Monterey County Department of Social
Services made under Probate Code section 1513.[1] She also explained that Trina M.'s release
date was May 25, 2010. The trial court granted Angela L.'s petition.
DISCUSSION
Section
1510, subdivision (a), provides that a relative, among other people, may
petition the court for guardianship of a minor.
After a hearing, the trial court may appoint a guardian of the minor's
person, estate, or both, â€
