In re Chrstopher J.
Mother appeals from a judgment terminating her parental rights to her son, a dependent child of the juvenile court, pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 366.26.[1] She claims that the trial court erroneously denied her motion, made on the day of the section 366.26 hearing, to continue that hearing. Court find that the trial courts denial of that request for a continuance did not abuse its discretion. Mother also claims that the denial of the continuance forced her to proceed with ineffective counsel, but Mother has not shown either that counsel was ineffective or that counsels ineffective assistance caused her prejudice. Court find no error and affirm the judgment.
