Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, Lynn Poschner, District Associate Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Vaitheswaran, P.J., and Mullins and Ahlers, JJ. Opinion by Ahlers, J. (7 pages)
An incarcerated father who had not seen his fourteen-year-old child for nearly six years challenges the termination of his parental rights. He argues reasonable efforts were not made toward reunification and termination of his parental rights is not in the best interest of the child. OPINION HOLDS: Finding the father’s claims unpersuasive, we affirm the juvenile court’s order terminating the father’s parental rights.
