In re Solomon B.
Annotate this CaseThe Court of Appeal reversed the juvenile court's jurisdictional and dispositional orders denying placement with Mother, and remanded for further hearing on Mother's request for placement. The court concluded that substantial evidence does not support the detriment finding. The court explained that Mother did not abandon the children or knowingly leave them in the care of an abusive Father. Rather, she fled California for safety reasons and regularly monitored the children's well-being, believing that Father would not abuse or neglect them. Furthermore, she quickly returned to California when trouble arose, attending hearings, participating in services, and undergoing a psychiatric evaluation.
