What is the test for applying the abuse of the abuse standard?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from Persons Coming Under the Juvenile Court Law. Orange Cnty. Soc. Servs. Agency v. S.M. (In re T.M.), G056588 (Cal. App. 2019):

when we apply the abuse of discretion standard, "we resolve all evidentiary conflicts in favor of the judgment and determine whether the court's decision '"falls within the permissible range of options set by the legal criteria."'" (Hirshfield v. Schwartz (2001) 91 Cal.App.4th 749, 771.) Given those stringent requirements, "[t]he abuse of discretion standard warrants that we apply a very high degree of deference to the decision of the juvenile court." (In re J.N., supra, 138 Cal.App.4th at p. 459.)
