Opinion


In re LAMONT R., a Person Coming Under the Juvenile Court Law. SAN DIEGO COUNTY HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES AGENCY, Plaintiff and Respondent, v. DEBRA P., Defendant and Appellant. D058599 California Court of Appeal, Fourth District, First Division March 8, 2011

NOT TO BE PUBLISHED

APPEAL from an order of the Superior Court of San Diego County No. J515803F, Martin W. Staven, Judge. (Retired Judge of the Tulare S.Ct. assigned by the Chief Justice pursuant to art. VI, § 6 of the Cal. Const.)

O'ROURKE, J.

Debra P. appeals findings and orders entered at a permanency plan and selection hearing held pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 366.26. Citing In re Sade C. (1996) 13 Cal.4th 952, she asks this court to exercise its discretion to review the record for error.

In In re Sade C., the California Supreme Court held that review pursuant to 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 [her] custody of a child or [her] status as the child's parent." (In re Sade C., supra, 13 Cal.4th at p. 959.) We therefore deny appellant's requests to review the record for error and to address the Anders issues. (Anders v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 738.)

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

DISPOSITION

The appeal is dismissed.

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