In re P.P.
Paul P. (Father) appeals an order of the juvenile court terminating his parental rights to his children, P.P. and N.P. (Welf. & Inst. Code, 366.26.) He claims that the Santa Barbara County Child Welfare Services (County) did not comply with the requirements of the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA). (25 U.S.C. 1901.) Court conclude, among other things: 1) substantial evidence supports the finding that Father's children were not members or entitled to membership in any Apache Indian Tribe, and 2) Father has not shown that the court erred by making an ICWA non-applicability finding at a post-judgment hearing where Father decided to represent himself. Court affirm.
