Syllabus
Manifest weight permanent custody best interests of child CCDCFS R.C. 2151.414 clear and convincing evidence reunification R.C. 2151.419 case plan incarceration. Judgment affirmed. There is clear and convincing evidence in the record to support the juvenile court's determination that permanent custody to CCDCFS is in B.B.C.'s best interest. Accordingly, the court's decision to grant permanent custody is not against the manifest weight of the evidence. Furthermore, the juvenile court complied with the requirements of R.C. 2151.419 in its journal entries granting temporary custody and made reasonable-efforts findings in its final judgment entry granting permanent custody of B.B.C. to CCDCFS. Lastly, the R.C. 2151.419 requirement to make reasonable efforts to prevent the removal of the child from the child's home generally does not require CCDCFS to make unreasonable efforts to attempt reunification with an incarcerated parent.
