Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, Kimberly Ayotte, District Associate Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Ahlers, P.J., Badding, J., and Carr, S.J. Opinion by Carr, S.J. (7 pages)
A mother appeals the juvenile court order terminating her parental rights. OPINION HOLDS: We find there is clear and convincing evidence in the record to support termination, an extension of time would not be proper in this case, termination is in the child’s best interests, and an exception to termination should not be applied. We affirm the decision of the juvenile court.
