In re River B.
Annotate this CaseThe Supreme Judicial Court affirmed the judgment of the district court terminating Mother’s parental rights to her child pursuant to Me. Rev. Stat. 22, 4055(1)(B)(2), holding that the evidence was sufficient to support the judgment. Specifically, the district court did not err in finding, by clear and convincing evidence, at least one ground of parental unfitness and that termination of parental rights was in the best interest of the child. The child, now almost three and a half years old, was born drug affected. Mother was addicted to prescription drugs and failed to make significant progress in reunifying with the child over the past two years.
