J.C. v. Department of Children & Family Services
Florida District Courts of Appeal
J.C. v. Department of Children & Family Services, 834 So. 2d 965 (2003)
2003 Fla. App. LEXIS 719; 2003 WL 160964
Altenbernd, Casanueva, Salcines
J.C. v. Department of Children & Family Services
Opinion of the Court
J.C., the mother of C.J. and D.J., challenges the trial court’s order terminating her parental rights after she failed to personally appear at an advisory hearing. As the Department of Children and Family Services properly concedes, J.C. did not receive proper written notice of the advisory hearing as required by section 39.801(3)(a), Florida Statutes (2000). Therefore, we reverse the termination of J.C.’s parental rights and remand for further proceedings.
Reversed and remanded.
