In re D.R.J.

Summary

The court reversed the order terminating respondent-father's parental rights because the termination motion did not provide notice of several grounds ultimately adjudicated, and the evidence and findings did not support the grounds that were properly alleged. The court also held that respondent-father could not collaterally challenge the initial custody determination because he had not appealed the underlying adjudication and dispositional orders, which were not void for lack of jurisdiction. The court did not reach the best-interests challenge because no statutory ground for termination was properly established.
