In re D.W.
Appellant Victoria, mother of Debbie[1] appeals from a Juvenile Court Order terminating her parental rights pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 366.26.[2] The Santa Cruz County Human Resources Agency (Agency) took Debbie into protective custody after Victoria, who had a long history of drug abuse and related criminal activity was arrested. Although Victoria suggested that Debbie be placed with Victorias mother, the Agency rejected the placement because Victorias mother had her own criminal and child welfare history. Instead, the court placed Debbie with the same family who had adopted Victorias younger brother (Debbies uncle). The appeal is dismissed as abandoned.
