IN RE LACIE F.

Syllabus

A mother appeals the termination of her parental rights to her child. The juvenile court found clear and convincing evidence of two statutory grounds for termination: abandonment by failure to support and failure to manifest an ability and willingness to assume custody. It also determined by clear and convincing evidence that termination was in the child's best interest. After a thorough review, we agree and affirm.

Judges: Judge W. Neal McBrayer
