In Re B.e.v.b.

Summary

The Court affirmed the termination of the father's parental rights based on willful abandonment. Although the father argued that his lack of contact was not willful because he could not locate the child, the Court held that the trial court's findings were supported by clear, cogent, and convincing evidence showing that he had several available means of contact but failed to use them. The Court also declined to address challenges to two findings because the remaining findings independently supported the adjudication.
