Supreme Court of Delaware

Morris v. Dscyf/dfs

December 21, 2022

Summary

The Supreme Court of Delaware affirmed the Family Court’s termination of the Mother’s parental rights. The Court held that clear and convincing evidence supported the statutory ground of failure to plan adequately for the Child’s needs, the best-interests determination, and DFS’s reasonable reunification efforts, and found no legal error or abuse of discretion. The Court also rejected the proposed argument that the Family Court improperly weighed the best-interest factors.
