Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, Rachael E. Seymour, District Associate Judge. AFFIRMED on both appeals. Considered by Danilson, C.J., and Vogel and Tabor, JJ. Opinion by Vogel, J. (6 pages)
The mother and father separately appeal the termination of their parental rights to their son, T.P. They argue the statutory grounds for termination have not been met and termination is not in the child’s best interests. OPINION HOLDS: The statutory grounds for termination have been met and the parents have not demonstrated they are capable of caring for T.P. now or in the future. Therefore, we affirm.
