In re H.F.
Defendant and appellant S.C. (mother) is the mother of three minor children, H.F. born in 1995, S.F. born in 1998, and B.C., born in 2011. Her two older children have the same father, J.F., and B.C.’s father is M.Z.
Mother appeals from the juvenile court’s jurisdictional findings and disposition order removing custody of B.C. from her. According to mother, there was insufficient evidence to support the jurisdictional findings based on her conduct and insufficient evidence to support the order removing B.C. from her.
We hold that because the juvenile court’s jurisdictional findings based on the conduct of the children’s fathers are not challenged on appeal, they are sufficient to support the juvenile court’s assertion of dependency court jurisdiction over the children, and therefore we need not address mother’s challenge to the jurisdictional findings as to her. We further hold that there was sufficient evidence to support the disposition order removing B.C. from mother. We therefore affirm the jurisdictional findings and disposition order.
