In re R.G.
In In re Sade C., the California Supreme Court held that review pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 is unavailable in "an indigent parent's appeal from a judgment or order, obtained by the state, adversely affecting his custody of a child or his status as the child's parent." (In re Sade C., supra, 13 Cal.4th at p. 959.) We therefore deny appellant's requests to review the record for error and to address the Anders issue. (Anders v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 738.)
John's counsel asks this court to order counsel to brief any arguable issues. (Penson v. Ohio (1988) 488 U.S. 75, 88.) Citing In re Phoenix H. (2009) 47 Cal.4th 835, his counsel also asks this court to exercise its discretion to provide her client the opportunity to file a supplemental brief in propria persona. The requests are denied.
