Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Dallas County, Virginia Cobb, Judge. AFFIRMED ON BOTH APPEALS. Considered by Bower, C.J. and Schumacher and Ahlers, JJ. Opinion by Ahlers, J. (11 pages)
Both parents separately appeal the termination of their parental rights as to their two children, arguing there was insufficient evidence to meet the statutory grounds for termination. The father also argues exceptions to termination should apply in his case. OPINION HOLDS: Finding clear and convincing evidence supporting the district court’s determination the statutory grounds for termination were met and the permissive exceptions to termination did not apply, we affirm.
