In re Interest of Samantha L.
Annotate this CaseKelly and William were the biological parents of two children in the care and custody of the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS). After the children had been in the custody of DHHS for nearly twenty-eight months, the juvenile court found that no further reasonable efforts were required in support of reunification and that the primary permanency objectives for the children should be changed from reunification. On plain error review, the Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the juvenile court did not plainly err in finding that reasonable efforts in support of reunification were no longer required and that the primary permanency objectives for the children should be changed from reunification.
