Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Black Hawk County, David Staudt, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Vaitheswaran, P.J., and Ahlers and Badding, JJ. Opinion by Vaitheswaran, P.J. (5 pages)
A mother appeals an order terminating her parental rights to two children. She putatively challenges the evidence supporting the grounds for termination cited by the district court. She also contends the district court should not have terminated her parental rights based on the fact that a relative had custody of the children and based on the claimed bond she shared with them. OPINION HOLDS: We affirm the termination of the mother’s parental rights to the children.
