Mariah Y. (mother) in propria persona seeks an
rule 8.452) from a juvenile court’s order terminating reunification services
and setting a Welfare and Institutions Code section 366.26 hearing as to her
children, who range in age from one to six years of age.
Mother admits there were valid reasons for the juvenile court’s decision
and simply asks for a second chance. She
does not claim the juvenile court committed any prejudicial error in reaching its
decision. On review, we conclude
mother’s petition is facially inadequate and will dismiss her petition.
DISCUSSION
The purpose of writ proceedings such as this is to facilitate review of
a juvenile court’s order setting a section 366.26 hearing to select and
implement a permanent plan for a dependent child. (Cal. Rules of Court, rule 8.450(a).) A court’s decision is presumed correct. (Denham
v. Superior Court (1970) 2 Cal.3d 557, 564.) It is up to a petitioner to raise specific
issues and substantively address them.
(§ 366.26, subd. (l).) This court will not independently review the
record for possible error. (
994.)
Because mother fails to raise any claim of juvenile court error, we
will dismiss her petition as facially inadequate.
DISPOSITION
The petition for extraordinary writ
is dismissed. This opinion is
immediately final as to this court.
