In Re Ahleigha C. - Dissent

Syllabus

Respectfully, I must dissent from the majority's decision to reverse the trial court's order terminating Father's parental rights. Based upon this Court's decisions in prior cases, I believe that there was clear and convincing proof that Father has failed to manifest, by act or omission, an ability and willingness to personally assume legal and physical custody or financial responsibility of the child, and placing the child in the person's legal and physical custody would pose a risk of substantial harm to the physical or psychological welfare of the child.
