Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Polk County, Sarah Crane, Judge. AFFIRMED AND REMANDED FOR ENTRY OF NUNC PRO TUNC ORDER. Considered by Bower, C.J., and Buller and Langholz, JJ. Opinion by Bower, C.J. (8 pages)
A father appeals the termination of his parental rights to his three children, contending the trial court improperly considered matters after the trial, the mother did not prove the grounds for termination, and termination of his rights is not in the children’s best interests. OPINION HOLDS: Because the mother has proved a ground for termination and we conclude termination of the father’s parental rights is in the children’s best interests, we affirm and remand to the district court for the limited purpose of allowing it to issue a nunc pro tunc order to correct the clerical error in the written ruling.
