Supreme Judicial Court of Maine

In re Child of Christian D.

February 11, 20252025 ME 16

Summary

The Maine Supreme Judicial Court affirmed the district court’s termination of the father’s parental rights, holding that the trial court satisfied Rule 52(a)’s specific‑findings requirement, did not abuse its discretion by rejecting a permanency guardianship, and that competent evidence supported the finding of parental unfitness. The court also rejected the father’s constitutional arguments.
