Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, Rachael E. Seymour, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered without oral argument by Schumacher, P.J., and Buller and Sandy, JJ. Opinion by Schumacher, P.J. (7 pages)
A mother appeals the termination of her parental rights, claiming the State failed to prove the grounds for termination cited by the juvenile court and termination is not in the children’s best interests because of the bond she shares with the children. She also claims her due process rights were violated “when the court permitted hearsay evidence to be admitted at the termination trial.” OPINION HOLDS: We affirm the termination of parental rights.
