Florida District Courts of Appeal · Decided January 24, 2003 · Altenbernd, Casanueva, Salcines
842 So. 2d 877; 2003 Fla. App. LEXIS 726; 2003 WL 161079 (Southern Reporter, Second Series)

J.G. v. Department of Children & Family Services

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

J.G. and L.S. challenge the trial court’s order terminating their parental rights to their son, A.T.G., after J.G. and L.S. failed to personally appear at a continued advisory hearing. As the Department of *878Children and Family Services properly concedes, neither J.G. nor L.S. received proper written notice of the advisory hearing as required by section 39.801(3)(a), Florida Statutes (2001). Therefore, we reverse the order terminating their parental rights and remand for further proceedings.

Reversed and remanded.

ALTENBERND, CASANUEVA, and SALCINES, JJ., concur.
