The Court of Appeal agreed with mother that the juvenile court’s jurisdictional finding was legally and factually insufficient to support the jurisdictional findings under WIC 300(b)(1)(a). Sufficient evidence did not support a finding that, at the time of jurisdiction hearing, the child was at substantial risk of physical harm as a result of mother’s failure or inability to adequately supervise or protect. The jurisdiction and disposition orders were reversed and the court was directed to dismiss the dependency petition.
