| 04/01/2021 | Dismissal order filed. | Mother and Father's reference to the possible adverse consequences of the juvenile court's findings in potential future dependency proceedings is too vague and speculative to demonstrate the type of "far reaching implications" that would support appellate review of the merits of an otherwise moot or nonjusticiable appeal. (See In re I.A., supra, 201 Cal.App.4th at p. 1493 [where a parent fails to identify any "specific legal or practical consequence from [the challenged] finding, either within or outside the dependency proceedings," the reviewing court may decide it can grant no effective relief and dismiss the appeal]; see also In re C.C., supra, 172 Cal.App.4th at p. 1489 [possibility that adverse finding might prejudice the mother in a future family law proceeding was "highly speculative"].) We decline under these circumstances to exercise our discretion to review the merits of otherwise moot appeals. Mother's and Father's appeals are dismissed. |
