IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT
DIVISION SIX
In re TRISTIN S. et al., Persons Coming 2d Juv. No. B251470
Under the Juvenile Court Law. (Super. Ct. No. JV48615)
(San Luis Obispo County)
SAN LUIS OBISPO COUNTY
DEPARTMENT OF SOCIAL SERVICES,
Plaintiff and Respondent,
v.
CASSANDRA S. et al.,
Defendants and Appellants.
Cassandra S. (Mother) appeals orders of the juvenile court
terminating her parental rights to Tristin S. and Lily S. (Welf. & Inst. Code,
§ 366.26.) and denial of a petition for relative placement with the children's
material grandmother, Jenean S. (Grandmother), (id. § 388). Grandmother
appeals the denial of her petition for relative placement. (Ibid.)
We appointed separate counsel to represent Mother and
Grandmother on appeal. After examining the record and researching potential
issues, both counsel advised us in writing that they could not find any arguable
issues to raise on their client's behalf.
Both counsel separately advised their clients that we have
discretion to allow them to file a brief or letter, and that we must allow them to
file a brief or letter upon a showing of good cause that an arguable issue exists.
We received a letter from Grandmother only, but it does not establish that an
arguable issue exists. (In re Phoenix H. (2009) 47 Cal. 4th 835, 845.)
We dismiss the appeals.
