v.

ARMANDO A.,

Defendant and Appellant.

APPEAL from an order of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County, Annabelle G. Cortez, Judge. Dismissed. Kate M. Chandler, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant. Richard D. Weiss, Acting County Counsel, Dawyn R. Harrison, Assistant County Counsel, and William D. Thetford, Principal Deputy County Counsel, for Plaintiff and Respondent.

INTRODUCTION

Armando A. appeals from the jurisdiction/disposition order declaring his son, Andres A., a dependent child of the court pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 300, subdivisions (b) and (c),1 placing Andres with his mother, Jasmine C., under the supervision of the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services (the Department), and ordering that Armando have monitored visitation in a therapeutic setting after Andres’ therapist and the Children’s Social Worker (CSW) assigned to the case recommend that visitation may begin. Armando contends the juvenile court impermissibly delegated its authority over visitation to the therapist and the CSW. Because the juvenile court has since granted Armando visitation, we dismiss his appeal as moot.
