Syllabus

Custody granted; to mother; from paternal grandmother; child's best interest; R.C. 2151.414(D)(1)(a)-(d); R.C. 2151.23(A)(2); R.C. 2151.42(B); modification of custody; termination of custody; R.C. 3109.04(F)(1). Paternal grandmother appeals the trial court's judgment terminating her custody of granddaughter R.T. and granting legal custody to R.T.'s mother. We find trial court properly granted legal custody of R.T. to mother from paternal grandmother since it was in the best interest of the child. The evidence put forth at the custody hearing established that paternal grandmother was significantly interfering with mother's parenting time and that custody with grandmother was no longer in the best interests of the child. Grandmother's two assignments of error are overruled.
