A Sutter County Child Protective Services employee has been charged with forging a court record and a judge's signature, the Appeal-Democrat has learned.
Sarah J. Powell, 35, will be arraigned June 1 in Sutter County Superior Court, said Assistant District Attorney Fred Schroeder.
Powell is also charged with forging the seal of the state of California on a document, he said.
Schroeder said he could not comment on the motive behind the alleged forgery. He did not disclose which judge's signature Powell is charged with forging.
Powell and Child Protective Services officials could not immediately be reached for comment.
The three charges were filed May 12. Powell was not arrested but was sent a letter ordering her to appear in court, Schroeder said.
There are no other defendants in the case, he said.
Child Protective Services workers are county employees.
Sutter County spokesman Chuck Smith said he learned of the case from the Appeal-Democrat.
"I have no idea what her job status is," Smith said.
