Latest Text Digest

Existing law establishes the jurisdiction of the juvenile court, which may adjudge children to be dependents of the court under certain circumstances, including when the child suffered, or there is a substantial risk that the child will suffer, serious physical harm, or a parent fails to provide the child with adequate food, clothing, shelter, or medical treatment. Existing law establishes the grounds for removal of a dependent child from the custody of the child’s parents or guardian, which include that their parent or guardian has been incarcerated or institutionalized and cannot arrange for the care of the minor. Existing law requires, if the parent or guardian is incarcerated or institutionalized, the court to order reasonable services, which may include visitation services, if appropriate, unless the court determines those services would be detrimental to the child.

This bill would provide that with regard to certain mandates no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
