Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Dubuque County, Thomas J. Straka, Associate Juvenile Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Tabor, P.J., and Schumacher and Ahlers, JJ. Opinion by Ahlers, J. (5 pages)
A mother appeals the termination of her parental rights to her child. She asks she be given additional time to work toward reunification. OPINION HOLDS: Because we do not anticipate any changes within the next six months that would allow the child to be returned to the mother, we do not give the mother any additional time to work toward reunification.
