AC43916 -
In re Skylar B. ("On appeal, the respondent claims that the court deprived him
of his right to substantive due process as guaranteed by the fourteenth
amendment to the United States constitution because transfer of guardianship is
a less restrictive means than termination of his parental rights to achieve
permanency. We conclude that the record is inadequate to review the
respondent’s claim and, accordingly, affirm the judgment of the trial court.")
AC44201- In re Angela V. (“On appeal, the respondent claims that the court violated
her right to the due process of law when it denied the motion for permission to
call the two older minor children as witnesses, which was filed by the
respondent father and later joined by the respondent. Following the parties’
appellate oral argument, we requested supplemental briefs addressing whether
the respondent’s claim was moot in light of her failure to challenge one of the
independent grounds of the trial court’s denial of the motion to have the two
older children testify. Having considered the supplemental briefs of the
parties5 and the record in this case, we conclude that the respondent’s claim
is moot. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.”)
