In Re A.V.N.

Syllabus

This case involves a petition to terminate the parental rights of a mother and father. The petitioners alleged four grounds for termination against both parents: (1) abandonment by failure to visit (2) abandonment by failure to support (3) persistence of conditions and (4) failure to manifest an ability and willingness to parent. The trial court found all four grounds were proven by clear and convincing evidence. The trial court also found that it was in the best interest of the child to terminate both of the parents' rights. The mother and father appealed separately. We reverse in part, affirm in part, and remand.
