Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, Susan Cox, District Associate Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Potterfield, P.J., Greer, J., and Mahan, S.J. Opinion by Mahan, S.J. (6 pages)
A father appeals the termination of his parental rights to his child, challenging the sufficiency of the evidence supporting the statutory grounds for termination and contending the juvenile court should have applied the statutory exception under Iowa Code section 232.116(3)(a) (2019) to preclude termination. OPINION HOLDS: We affirm the decision of the juvenile court to terminate the father’s parental rights.
