Bob S., Appellant v. State of Alaska, Department of Health & Social Services, Office of Children’s Services, Appellee

Summary

The Alaska Supreme Court affirmed termination of Bob S.'s parental rights to his Indian child. It held that the superior court did not clearly err in finding that Bob had not remedied his harmful conduct, that OCS made active but unsuccessful efforts to reunify the family, that qualified expert testimony and other evidence established likely serious harm from returning the child to Bob's custody, and that termination was in the child's best interests. No separate opinions were filed.
