In re A.M.
Appellant A.M., father of A.M., appeals from a juvenile court order terminating his parental rights under Welfare and Institutions Code section 366.26.[1] The facts underlying the juvenile courts assumption of jurisdiction over the child are set out in further detail in this courts opinion in A.M. v. Superior Court, H033344.[2] In that case, we denied appellants petition for extraordinary writ challenging the juvenile courts order terminating reunification services. After our opinion was final, the case proceeded to a section 366.26 hearing to select a permanent plan. The Monterey Department of Social & Employment Services (Department) recommended that the court select adoption as a permanent plan. In a report filed before the hearing, the Department stated that the child had been placed with a prospective adoptive family since 2007 and both the family and child were happy and doing well together. The Department also recommended ongoing visits for the child with his siblings who were still in appellants care.
