Nevada Supreme Court
In Re: Parental Rights as to L.r.s., J.m.s. and J.l.s.
September 19, 2024140 Nev. Adv. Op. No. 62
Summary
The Nevada Supreme Court reversed the termination of Ryan S.'s parental rights because the district court improperly applied statutory considerations and presumption provisions that did not govern a case in which the children were in their mother's custody. The court also held that substantial evidence did not support findings of abandonment, neglect, or token efforts. The matter was remanded with instructions concerning the children's amended birth certificates.
