In Re Princeton W.

Syllabus

This appeal concerns the termination of a mother's parental rights to her child. The trial court determined that the mother had abandoned the child by failure to engage in more than token visitation and further ruled that it was in the child's best interests for the mother's rights to be terminated. Because we conclude that clear and convincing evidence supports both the ground of abandonment by failure to visit and that termination of the mother's parental rights is in the best interests of the child, we affirm the judgment of the trial court.

Judges: Judge Arnold B. Goldin
