In re Trinity R.
Leah R. appeals orders declaring her daughter, Trinity R., a dependent child of the juvenile court and placing Trinity in her care. She contends the court erred in denying her petition to invalidate the judgment, in which she alleged the San Diego County Health and Human Services Agency (the Agency) did not comply with requirements of the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA). She asserts the evidence was insufficient to support the jurisdictional findings and the court erred in declaring Trinity a dependent child when she (Leah) was cooperative and immediately began services. She also contends she was denied due process. Court conclude the issues Leah raises concerning ICWA are moot, and we do not discuss these issues. As to the other matters Leah raises, we hold the court did not err in finding the allegations of the petition true or declaring her daughter a dependent child, and Leah has not shown a denial of due process. Court affirm the orders.
