In re Natalie T.
In this dependency action (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 300),[1] the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services appeals from section 366.26 orders that identified legal guardianship or foster care as the child’s permanent plan. The appeal challenges the application of the parent-child relationship exception—also called the “benefit exception”—to termination of parental rights. (§ 366.26, subd. (c)(1)(B)(i).) The Department contends the trial court erred in finding the exception applies to this case. Based on our review of the record, we conclude the finding was premature, and we reverse and remand for further proceedings.
