In re C.R.L.
Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court affirmed the order of the trial court terminating Father's parental rights to his two minor children, holding that Father missed his opportunity to remedy a violation of N.C. Gen. Stat. 7B-1109.
On appeal, Father argued that the trial court violated section 7B-1109 by holding the termination hearing more than ninety days after the Department of Social Services filed its petitions to terminate his parental rights, thus committing reversible error. The Supreme Court affirmed the termination order, holding that the issue raised by Father on appeal should have been addressed by filing a petition for writ of mandamus while the termination petitions were still pending.
