Description
Nadine S. appeals from the order terminating her parental rights (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 366.26) to Pedro N. and Margie N.*fn1 Claiming her children came within the ambit of the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA) (25 U.S.C. § 1901 et seq.), she contends respondent Fresno County Department of Social Services (Department) gave inadequate notice to the proper authorities as required by the ICWA. Consequently, she argues the juvenile court lacked the authority to terminate her rights. Notwithstanding our opinion in In re Kahlen W. (1991) 233 Cal. App. 3d 1414, 285 Cal. Rptr. 507 and federal law cited by the mother, we hold she is foreclosed from raising ICWA notice issues by her failure to challenge timely the juvenile court's action.
