In re J.V.
This is an appeal by S.L. (mother) from a juvenile court's order under Welfare and Institutions Code[1] section 366.26 terminating her parental rights to Jay.V., Jai.V., and G.W., who are three of five children removed from her custody due to physical abuse.[2] Mother contends that termination of parental rights is detrimental to the children under the sibling relationship exception to parental rights termination set out in section 366.26, subdivision (c)(1)(B)(v), and therefore the trial court erred when it terminated her parental rights. Mother also contends that she was deprived of effective assistance of trial counsel because her trial counsel did not raise the sibling exception at the hearing where parental rights were terminated. We affirm.
