LOS ANGELES COUNTY
DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN AND

         Plaintiff and Respondent,

         v.

PRINCEANNE W.,

         Defendant and Appellant.



         APPEAL from an order of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County, Marilyn K.
Martinez, Commissioner. Reversed with directions.
      Catherine C. Czar, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and
Appellant.

      Mary C. Wickham, County Counsel, Dawyn R. Harrison, Assistant County
Counsel and Jacklyn K. Louie, Principal Deputy County Counsel for Plaintiff and
Respondent.

         Children’s Law Center 3, Isabel Nava, Esq. for Minors.
       P.W., the mother of the child, K.W., appeals from a Welfare and Institutions Code
section 366.26 parental termination rights order. The mother contends the parental
termination rights order must be reversed because of noncompliance with the Indian
Child Welfare Act and related California provisions. The parties have stipulated to a
limited reversal of the parental termination rights order to allow compliance with the
Indian Child Welfare Act and related California provisions. In addition, the parties have
stipulated to immediate remittitur issuance.
       We accept the parties’ stipulation. The parties agree there was noncompliance
with the Indian Child Welfare Act and related California provisions. We concur in their
assessment in this regard. Further, the parties agree the parental termination rights order
must be reversed and remanded to permit proof of compliance with the Indian Child
Welfare Act and related California provisions.
       Our ability to accept a stipulated reversal in the dependency context is discussed in
the case of In re Rashad H. (2000) 78 Cal.App.4th 376, 379-382. The present case
involves reversible error—the failure to present substantial evidence of compliance with
the Indian Child Welfare Act and its related California provisions. (In re Marinna J.
(2001) 90 Cal.App.4th 731, 736-740; In re Desiree F. (2000) 83 Cal.App.4th 460, 471-
472.) Under any circumstances, the dispositional order would be reversed. Thus, a
stipulated reversal advances those interests identified in Code of Civil Procedure section
128, subdivision (a)(8). (In re Rashad H., supra, 78 Cal.App.4th at pp. 379-382; see
Union Bank of California v. Braille Inst. of America, Inc. (2001) 92 Cal.App.4th 1324,
1329-1330.) If proper notice and investigation is undertaken and no tribe asserts that the
child is of Indian descent, the parental termination rights order is to be reinstated. If a
tribe asserts that the child is of Indian descent, the juvenile court is to proceed in
compliance with the Indian Child Welfare Act and related California provisions.
       The parental termination rights order is reversed and the cause is remanded for
compliance with the federal Indian Child Welfare Act requirements and related state
provisions. The remittitur is to issue forthwith.
