INTRODUCTION

Yesenia O. appeals from the juvenile court’s jurisdiction findings and disposition orders declaring her children Sophia V. and Abraham V. dependent children of the court under Welfare and Institutions Code section 300.1 Yesenia argues substantial evidence did not support the juvenile court’s jurisdiction findings that her inability to care for her older child, Jacob V., who had behavioral problems, placed Sophia and Abraham at substantial risk of serious physical harm. While this appeal was pending, the juvenile court terminated its jurisdiction, leaving Sophia and Abraham in the custody of Yesenia and her husband, Omar V. Yesenia appealed from the order terminating jurisdiction, but her appellate counsel filed a brief under In re Phoenix H. (2009) 47 Cal.4th 835 raising no issues, and we dismissed that appeal. Because we cannot provide Yesenia any effective relief, we dismiss this appeal as moot.
