In re Alexander H. CA5
In March 2021, the juvenile court adjudged, then two-year-old, Alexander a dependent child and removed him from parental custody after sustaining allegations he fell outside his home at approximately 12:30 a.m., while in mother’s care, sustained a broken femur and tested positive for amphetamine while receiving treatment at the emergency room. Mother was present with her attorney at the hearing and waived her right to a hearing on the allegations. The court ordered mother and Alexander’s father to participate in reunification services. Mother’s reunification plan required her to participate in a 14-week parenting/neglect counseling program and submit to random drug testing. The Kern County Department of Human Services (department) placed Alexander in foster care and then transitioned him to the home of a relative in May 2021.
