In re H.V. CA2/1
Gilberto V., father of H.V. and H.G.V. (Father), appeals from a dispositional order made pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 361, subdivision (c)(1) removing the children from his custody. Father contends section 361, subdivision (c)(1) applies only to a parent with whom a child resides, and because H.V. and H.V.G. did not reside with Father, the court had no authority under that section to make the orders restricting his rights to the children. Father also contends the juvenile court erred by limiting him to monitored visitation. We agree with Father that section 361, subdivision (c) does not apply but we conclude that Father has failed to demonstrate prejudice. We do not agree that the juvenile court erred by limiting Father’s visitation with the children. Therefore, we affirm but remand with directions.
