In Re: Riley W.
Syllabus
Lindsey W. (\Mother\) appeals the September 25, 2017 order of the Juvenile Court for Hamilton County (\the Juvenile Court\) terminating her parental rights to the minor child Riley W. (\the Child\) upon the grounds of substantial noncompliance with the permanency plan pursuant to Tenn. Code Ann. § 36-1-113(g)(2) and persistent conditions pursuant to Tenn. Code Ann. § 36-1-113(g)(3). We find and hold that grounds for terminating Mother's parental rights to the Child pursuant to Tenn. Code Ann. §§ 36-1- 113(g)(2) and (g)(3) were proven by clear and convincing evidence and that it was proven by clear and convincing evidence that the termianation was in the Child's best interests. We, therefore, affirm the September 25, 2017 order of the Juvenile Court terminating Mother's parental rights to the Child.
Judges: Judge D. Michael Swiney, C.J.
