.........Termination of Parental Rights
............Postadoption Visitation Not Req'd
2 Cards On This Topic:

As in W&IC and FC proceedings to terminate parental rights prior to adoption, when parental rights are terminated in a Prob.C. 1516.5 action, court has no authority to order continuing visitation by birth parents.

Nothing in W&IC 366.29(a) requires court to address postadoption visitation when terminating parental rights under W&IC 366.26.
