## Rule excerpts
Welfare and Institutions Code section 361.3: adoptive parents of the child’s biological siblings.
> The relative placement preference was inapplicable here. As the trial court observed section 361.3 does not include the adoptive parent of a child’s biological sibling as a “relative” entitled to the statutory preference.
