In Re Stephen H.

Syllabus

In this case involving termination of the father's parental rights to his children, the trial court found that several statutory grounds for termination had been proven by clear and convincing evidence. The trial court further found that clear and convincing evidence demonstrated that termination of the father's parental rights was in the children's best interest. The father has appealed. Having determined that clear and convincing evidence did not support the trial court's finding of the statutory abandonment ground of failure to support, we reverse the trial court's judgment with respect to this ground. We affirm the trial court's judgment in all other respects, including the termination of the father's parental rights.
