In re Child of Corey B.
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Judicial Court affirmed the judgment of the district court terminating Father's parental rights to his child, holding that the court did not err in terminating Father's parental rights or violate Father's constitutional rights.
In terminating Father's parental rights the court found that Father was unable to take responsibility for the child within a time reasonably calculated to meet the child's needs and that termination of his parental rights was in the child's best interest. The Supreme Judicial Court affirmed, holding (1) the district court did not err in finding Father unfit or in determining that termination of Father's rights was in the child's best interest; and (2) the trial court did not commit obvious error in measuring the length of time Father needed to protect the child from jeopardy against the time within which the time should achieve permanency.
