In re A.S.M.R.
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed the order of the trial court terminating Parents' parental rights in their two children, holding that the court did not err or abuse its discretion.
Specifically, the Supreme Court held (1) a respondent's failure to appeal an adjudication order generally serves to preclude a subsequent collateral attack on that order during an appeal of a later order terminating the respondent's parental rights; and (2) the trial court's failure to make explicit findings establishing jurisdiction under the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdiction and Enforcement Act (UCCJEA) did not constitute error because the record unambiguously demonstrated that the jurisdictional perquisites in the UCCJEA were satisfied.
