In re Interest of M.W.

The court of appeals affirmed the termination of parental rights to M.W. but reversed the termination of parental rights as to Z.W. The State appealed. The Supreme Court affirmed in part and reversed in part, holding (1) the juvenile court order terminating parental rights to M.W. was proper; but (2) the juvenile court order terminating parental rights to Z.W. was also proper and supported by clear and convincing evidence in the record.
