In re J.G.S.
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed the order of the trial court terminating Father's parental rights to his child, holding that there was no error or abuse of discretion.
The trial court entered an order determining that grounds existed to terminate Father's parental rights under N.C. Gen. Stat. 7B(a)(1), (2), (6), (7) and that it was in the child's best interests that Father's parental rights be terminated. On appeal, counsel for Father filed a no-merit brief on Father's behalf. The Supreme Court reviewed the issues identified by counsel in the no-merit brief and held that the trial court's order was supported by clear, cogent, and convincing evidence and was based on proper legal grounds.
