In re B.S.
R.S. (hereafter, father or R.S.) appeals the juvenile courts August 20, 2008 jurisdictional/dispositional order declaring his daughter B.S. a dependent child of the court pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 300, subdivision (b).
Father contends the juvenile court erred in finding he was an alleged/biological father and that the court failed to follow proper procedure which would have enabled him the opportunity to elevate his paternity status. The Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services (Department) concedes the juvenile court should have provided father with a JV-505 form consistent with section 316.2, subdivision (b) and does not oppose a limited remand for that purpose. Court accept the Departments concession and reverse and remand for further proceedings.
