In re G.C.
The mother appeals from an April 21, 2008 dispositional order denying her reunification services. The mother purports to appeal from the order denying reunification services as to three children, E.C., G.C., and M.C. But on the date in question, April 21, 2008, the juvenile court denied reunification services as to two children only, G.C. and M.C., having previously denied such services as to E.C. The order denying the mother reunification services as to E.C. was entered on May 1, 2007. The present notice of appeal was filed on April 21, 2008, more than 60 days after the juvenile court denied the mother reunification services as to E.C. Hence the present appeal is not a timely appeal from the order denying reunification services as to E.C. (Cal. Rules of Court, rules 5.585(f), 8.400(d).) And we have no jurisdiction to entertain an appeal from the order denying reunification services as to E.C. (Griset v. Fair Political Practices Com. (2001) 25 Cal.4th 688, 696; Adoption of Alexander S. (1988) 44 Cal.3d 857, 864.) The cause is remanded for the sole purpose of complying with the Indian Child Welfare Act as to G.C. and M.C.
