People v. DeJongh
Annotate this Case
Defendant and her husband appealed their conviction of three counts of child custody deprivation, contending that the underlying order of the family law court did not confer custody or visitation rights on the paternal grandparents and thus there was no violation of
Pen. Code, section 278.5. The court found, however, that the family law court order conferred visitation rights on the parental grandparents. Because defendants deprived the parental grandparents of a right to visitation within the meaning of section 278.5, the court affirmed the judgment.
