Opinion
SIMS, J.
Among the parental rights terminated by a judgment entered pursuant to Civil Code section 232 1 is the right of visitation. (In re Robert J. (1982) 129 Cal.App.3d 894, 904 [181 Cal.Rptr. 188].) In this case we hold that a judgment pursuant to section 232 terminating visitation rights is effective pending appeal unless it is stayed by a court order.
