In Re Brantley O.
Syllabus
A mother appeals the termination of her parental rights to her child. The juvenile court determined that there were three statutory grounds for terminating the mother's parental rights: abandonment by an incarcerated parent, substantial noncompliance with the permanency plan, and failure to manifest an ability and willingness to assume custody and financial responsibility. The juvenile court also determined that termination of the mother's parental rights was in her child's best interest. Because the record contains clear and convincing evidence to support both the grounds for termination and the best interest determination, we affirm.
