Opinion

In re L.H., a Person Coming Under the Juvenile Court Law. SAN DIEGO COUNTY HEALTH AND HUMAN SERVICES AGENCY, Plaintiff and Respondent, v. JESSICA W. et al, Defendants and Appellants. D054106 California Court of Appeal, Fourth District, First Division March 17, 2009

NOT TO BE PUBLISHED

APPEALS from a judgment of the Superior Court of San Diego County, No. NJ013513 Michael Imhoff, Referee.

NARES, J.

Jessica W. and Curtis H. appeal the findings and orders entered at a termination of parental rights hearing held under Welfare and Institutions Code section 366.26. Citing In re Sade C. (1996) 13 Cal.4th 952, they ask this court to exercise its discretion to review the record for error.

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

Jessica C.'s and Curtis H.'s counsel also request leave for them to file supplemental briefs in propria persona. The requests are denied.

DISPOSITION

The appeals are dismissed.
