Court of Appeals of Tennessee· 4/27/2026

In Re James K.

Syllabus

In this termination of parental rights case, Appellant/Mother appeals the trial court's termination of her parental rights to the minor child on the ground of persistent conditions, Tenn. Code Ann. § 36-1-113(g)(3). Because there is clear and convincing evidence to support this ground and the trial court's determination that termination of Appellant's parental rights is in the child's best interests, we affirm.

Judges: Judge Valerie L. Smith
