In Re Children of Jennifer B.

May 21, 20262026 ME 47

Summary

The Maine Supreme Judicial Court vacated the district court’s termination of Jennifer B.’s parental rights and remanded for further proceedings. It held that the trial court erred in admitting hearsay testimony about June, July, and January drug screens and that the error was not harmless. The court also found the trial court’s best‑interest analysis deficient. The August screen admission was proper.
