Statewide Guardian ad Litem Office v. C.C. & Department of Children and Families v. C.C.
March 7, 2024
Summary
The court quashed the district court’s decision reversing termination of C.C.’s parental rights and remanded for the district court to affirm the trial court’s order. It held that the district court improperly reweighed the evidence and that competent, substantial evidence supported the finding that termination was the least restrictive means of protecting the child from serious harm while satisfying due process. No separate opinions were filed.
