Summary

            Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Appanoose County, William S. Owens, Associate Juvenile Judge.  AFFIRMED.  Considered by Bower, C.J., Greer, J., and Blane, S.J.  Opinion by Blane, S.J.  (5 pages)

            The mother appeals a permanency ruling denying her request for an extension of time for reunification.  She also contests the juvenile court’s grant of concurrent jurisdiction to the district court for custody determinations.  OPINION HOLDS: We find the extension of time was unwarranted, and the mother failed to preserve error on her challenge to concurrent jurisdiction.  So we affirm.
