Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Sioux County, Daniel P. Vakulskas, District Associate Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Bower, C.J., and Greer and Ahlers, JJ. Opinion by Ahlers, J. (6 pages)
A father appeals the termination of his parental rights. He argues clear and convincing evidence has not been produced to show the statutory grounds for terminating his parental rights and argues the State has not met its burden to make reasonable efforts to return the child to his care. OPINION HOLDS: Clear and convincing evidence supported terminating the father’s parental rights. The father’s argument regarding reasonable efforts by the State to return the child to his care was not preserved for our review. We affirm.
