Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.
- holding that “incarceration is merely one relevant factor to be considered by the trial court [and] does not per se give rise to justifiable cause”
- the trial court correctly denied the adoption petition based upon its finding that the father, who was incarcerated, had no ability to earn income so he could pay child support, and, therefore, his failure to support the child was not without justifiable cause
