Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Cerro Gordo County, Adam Sauer, Judge. AFFIRMED. Considered by Bower, C.J., and Tabor and Badding, JJ. Opinion by Bower, C.J. (9 pages)
A mother appeals the termination of her parental rights to her children, claiming the State failed to prove the ground for termination cited by the juvenile court, termination is not in the child’s best interests, a six-month extension would eliminate the ground for termination, and the court should apply a permissive exception to preclude termination. OPINION HOLDS: Upon review, we affirm.
