North Dakota Supreme Court

Interest of M.S.H. and P.S.H.

February 19, 20262026 ND 44

Summary

The court dismissed the mother's appeal for lack of jurisdiction because she did not appeal the final order terminating her parental rights within the mandatory 30-day period. Her later motion to reform the request for district court review could not extend the appeal period or provide a means to collaterally attack the termination order.
