Syllabus

Permanent custody; continuance; R.C. 2151.414(A)(2); Juv.R. 4(A); discretion; R.C. 2151.414(B)(1); R.C. 2151.414(B)(1)(d); best interest; R.C. 2151.414(D)(1); R.C. 2151.414(D)(2); R.C. 2151.414(E); clear and convincing; manifest weight. Affirmed the juvenile court's judgments granting permanent custody of two children to the agency and terminating mother's parental rights. The juvenile court did not abuse its discretion in denying a request for a continuance of the permanent-custody trial. The juvenile court engaged in the proper analysis and made the requisite determinations under R.C. 2151.414(B)(1) and 2151.414(D) and (E), and its judgments were not against the manifest weight of the evidence.
