Summary
Appeal from the Iowa District Court for Pottawattamie County, Charles D. Fagan, Judge. AFFIRMED ON BOTH APPEALS. Considered by Schumacher, P.J., and Buller and Langholz, JJ. Opinion by Buller, J. (10 pages)
The mother and father separately appeal termination of their parental rights to two children. OPINION HOLDS: We find termination of parental rights to be in the children’s best interests and the children could not return to either parent’s care at the time of trial. Error was not preserved on the mother’s reasonable-efforts claim. We affirm on both appeals.
