Regina C. v. Superior Court
Regina C. (mother) seeks an extraordinary writ (Cal. Rules of Court, rule 8.452) from a March 2013 juvenile court order setting a Welfare and Institutions Code section 366.26[1] hearing to select and implement a permanent plan for her seven-month-old son, Joshua. The court reached its decision having denied the parents services to reunify with Joshua, who suffered repeated physical abuse at the hands of his father. The court found mother, by her omission, also inflicted severe physical harm on Joshua and that it would not benefit the infant to pursue reunification services with mother. (§ 361.5, subd. (b)(6).) We agree with the juvenile court and deny this petition.
