Syllabus

Appellant, the biological father of the two children at issue, did not have more than de minimis contact with the children, without justifiable cause, during the relevant period preceding the filing of petitions for the adoption of the children by their stepfather. As such, the probate court properly concluded that his consent to the adoptions was not required. Judgment affirmed.
