Legal Issues

  • Whether sufficient evidence supported the termination of Father’s parental rights.

Disposition

  • The Court of Appeals affirmed the district court's termination of Father's parental rights.

Reasons

  • MEDINA, Judge, with KRISTINA BOGARDUS, Judge, and JANE B. YOHALEM, Judge concurring: The Court considered Father's memorandum in opposition but found it unpersuasive, affirming the termination of parental rights for the reasons stated in their notice of proposed disposition. Father's arguments, which were a repetition of earlier statements, did not fulfill the requirement to specifically point out errors of law and fact. The Court emphasized that the burden is on the party opposing the proposed disposition to clearly point out errors in fact or law, which Father failed to do (paras 1-2).
