In Re Enrique F.

Syllabus

This is an appeal from a termination of parental rights proceeding. Although the trial court found that certain grounds for termination were established against the children's father, it determined that there was insufficient proof that termination was in the children's best interests. On appeal, the guardian ad litem and prospective adoptive parents challenge the trial court's best interests determination, as well as the trial court's failure to conclude that other grounds for termination were established. Our review of the record reveals that no grounds for termination were properly found by the trial court, and we therefore affirm the trial court's denial of the petition to terminate on this basis.

Judges: Judge Arnold B. Goldin
