In re L.D.
D.D. and Nathaniel K. appeal orders terminating their parental rights to their son, L.D., and referring the case for adoption. Nathaniel contends the court abused its discretion by not continuing the Welfare and Institutions Code[1] section 366.26 hearing to allow his counsel to receive discovery and to have additional time to prepare for trial. He also asserts that if D.D.'s appeal is successful, the order terminating his parental rights must also be reversed. D.D., joined by Nathaniel, asserts the court erred by terminating parental rights because there was not substantial evidence presented to support finding L.D. is an adoptable child, and the evidence showed she has a beneficial parent-child relationship with L.D. within the meaning of section 366.26, subdivision (c)(1)(B)(i), to preclude terminating parental rights. We affirm the orders.
