IN RE CHRISTOPHER L.


The petition for review is granted. The issue to be briefed and argued is limited to the following: Is it structural error, and thus reversible per se, for a juvenile court to proceed with jurisdiction and disposition hearings without an incarcerated parent's presence and without appointing the parent an attorney?

The request for an order directing depublication of the opinion is denied.

Votes: Cantil-Sakauye, C. J., Corrigan, Liu, Cuéllar, Kruger, Groban, and Jenkins, JJ.
