Cal. Welf. & Inst. Code § 399 — Foster Care of Children is in force in the current edition of the Code, and nothing recorded condemns it.
Any minor being considered for placement in a foster home shall have the right to make a brief statement to the court making a decision on placement. The court may disregard any preferences expressed by the minor. The minor’s right to make a statement shall not be limited to the initial placement, but shall continue for any proceedings concerning continued placement or a decision to return to parental custody.
