Opinion


In re CODY M., a Person Coming Under the Juvenile Court Law. SAN DIEGO COUNTY HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES AGENCY, Plaintiff and Respondent, v. VICTOR M., Defendant and Appellant. D058314 California Court of Appeal, Fourth District, First Division January 6, 2011

NOT TO BE PUBLISHED IN OFFICIAL REPORTS

APPEAL from orders of the Superior Court of San Diego County, No. NJ14153B Michael J. Imhoff, Commissioner.

NARES, J.

Victor M. appeals the findings and orders entered at the dispositional hearing held under Welfare and Institutions Code sections 360, subdivision (d) and 361, subdivision (c). Citing In re Sade C. (1996) 13 Cal.4th 952, he asks this court to exercise its discretion to review the record for error.

In In re Sade C., the California Supreme Court held review under People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 is unavailable in "an indigent parent's appeal from a judgment or order, obtained by the state, adversely affecting his custody of a child or his status as the child's parent." (In re Sade C. supra, 13 Cal.4th at p. 959.) We therefore deny his requests to review the record for error and to address his Anders issue. (Anders v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 738.)

Citing In re Phoenix H. (2009) 47 Cal.4th 835, Victor's counsel also asks this court to exercise its discretion to provide Victor the opportunity to file a supplemental brief in propria persona. The request is denied.

DISPOSITION

The appeal is dismissed.

WE CONCUR: BENKE, Acting P. J., HUFFMAN, J.
