Consent to adoption; R.C. 3107.05; Justifiable cause for lack of contact with child; Manifest weight of the evidence; Best interest of the child. The trial court's judgment finding the biological father's consent was not required for the adoption of his child was not against the manifest weight of the evidence, and the trial court did not abuse its discretion in determining that adoption was in the best interest of the child.
