LOS ANGELES COUNTY
DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN AND
FAMILY SERVICES,

         Plaintiff and Respondent,

         v.

C.M.,

         Defendant and Appellant.



         APPEAL from an order of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County, Teresa T.
Sullivan, Judge. Dismissed.
         Marsha F. Levine, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and
Appellant.
         Mary C. Wickham, Interim County Counsel, Dawyn R. Harrison, Assistant
County Counsel, and Jeanette Cauble, Senior Deputy County Counsel, for Plaintiff and
Respondent.
       The father, Charles M., appeals from a dispositional order in a dependency matter.
While the appeal was pending, the dispositional order was vacated. This had the effect of
vacating family maintenance and counseling and parenting class orders. As the father’s
appeal is moot, we order its dismissal.
       In response to this state of affairs, the Department of Children and Family Services
moved to dismiss the appeal on mootness grounds. The father now agrees that the appeal
is moot. We can provide the father no effectual relief and thus have no jurisdiction over
this matter because all of his contentions are now moot. (Eye Dog Foundation v. State
