California Court of Appeal

Because appellant did not acknowledge or establish his paternity (25 U.S.C. section 1903(9); Cal. Rules of Court, rule 1439(a)(4)), he lacks standing to assert that the juvenile court committed reversible error by not complying with the notice requirements of the Indian Child Welfare Act.
