FIRST APPELLATE DISTRICT

DIVISION FIVE

In re HANNAH P., et al., a Person Coming Under the Juvenile Court Law.

SOLANO COUNTY HEALTH & SOCIAL SERVICES DEPARTMENT, Plaintiff and Respondent, A144363 v. (Solano County MEGAN I., Super. Ct. No. J42376, J42377) Defendant and Appellant.

In this dependency proceeding, Megan I. (Mother) appeals from the juvenile court’s order terminating her parental rights to Hannah P., born in December 2004, and Jacob I., born in May 2011 (Minors). We affirm. BACKGROUND The Minors were detained in August 2012. Mother was dirty and barefoot and had open sores all over her arms and legs; the Minors were dirty and had not eaten in two days. Mother said she had recently returned to California after Jacob’s father beat her up and was arrested. Mother eventually admitted to being addicted to methamphetamines.

Welfare and Institutions Code section 300 petitions were filed,1 alleging that the Minors were dirty and not being properly cared for, that both Mother and Jacob’s father had untreated substance abuse issues,2 that Mother had untreated mental health issues and a history of engaging in “violent intimate partner relationships,” and that the family had a history of moving from place to place “to avoid law enforcement and government authorities.” In November, the juvenile court sustained the section 300 petitions (with some amendments). Although there were some difficulties and setbacks, Mother complied with her case plan and was testing negative for drugs, and the Minors were returned to her care in December 2013.3 Mother was living in Vacaville with the father of another of her children, who is not involved in the present proceedings. In June 2014, Mother, the Minors, and Jacob’s father moved to a motel in Fairfield. That same month, during an unannounced home visit, Mother was found with open sores on her body, and she admitted to using methamphetamine the day before. The Department crafted a safety plan, but the Minors were not detained. On July 16, 2014, Jacob’s father advised the Department that Mother had kicked him and the Minors out of the motel room. Hannah reported Mother yelled in her face and told her she did not want anything to with her or Jacob. On July 18, the Department detained the Minors. On July 22, the Department filed a section 387 supplemental petition to remove the Minors from Mother’s care, making various allegations relating to Mother’s substance abuse. An August amended petition alleged substance abuse by Jacob’s father. The Minors were placed together in foster care.
