Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Chickasaw County, David F. Staudt, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Danilson, C.J., and Vogel and Tabor, JJ. Opinion by Tabor, J. (5 pages)
A mother appeals the termination of her parental rights under Iowa Code section 232.116(1)(f) (2018), arguing the State failed to prove P.H. could not be returned to the mother’s custody at the time. OPINION HOLDS: We find the statutory grounds for termination were established by clear and convincing evidence. We affirm the juvenile court order terminating the mother’s parental rights.
