In re M.V.
In this appeal of the juvenile court’s jurisdictional order, the mother of a dependent child argues that the juvenile court failed to obtain a knowing, intelligent, and voluntary waiver of her trial rights. She also contends that there was insufficient evidence to support the court’s jurisdictional findings.
We conclude, on this record, that the mother did not submit on the issue of jurisdiction at the contested jurisdiction hearing. The juvenile court was therefore not required to obtain a waiver of trial rights as a part of that hearing. We also find substantial evidence supporting the court’s order on jurisdiction, and will affirm the judgment.
