In re K.M.

  • 2019 Ohio 1833

Syllabus

The juvenile court did not err by granting legal custody of appellant's daughter to a children services agency rather than appellant or the child's paternal aunt and uncle where granting permanent custody was in the child's best interest when considering that removing the child from her foster home would possibly, if not probably, cause the child to suffer additional trauma due to the uncertainty she had faced while in foster care for what was now one-third of her young life.
