In re J.R.
V.R. (mother), appeals from orders of the juvenile court adjudging her son, J.R., a dependent child of the court and bypassing reunification services for her. (Welf. & Inst. Code, 300, 361.5, subd. (b).) Court appointed counsel to represent mother in this court.
Appointed counsel filed an opening brief which states the case and the facts but raises no specific issues. (See In re Sade C. (1996) 13 Cal.4th 952 (Sade C.).) Mother now asks this court to independently review the record and also to follow the procedure set forth in Conservatorship of Ben C. (2007) 40 Cal.4th 529, 544, footnote 6 (Ben C.), by inviting mother to file her own supplemental brief. The Santa Clara County Department of Family and Childrens Services opposes the request, arguing that Ben C. does not require us to solicit supplemental briefs from appellants in dependency cases.
Court have read and considered it. Since neither mother nor her counsel has raised an arguable issue, Court dismiss the appeal.
