In the Matter of E.h.p. and K.l.p.

Summary

The Court affirmed termination of the respondent-father's parental rights because clear, cogent, and convincing evidence supported willful abandonment, and the trial court did not abuse its discretion in finding termination to be in the children's best interests. The Court declined to decide whether the separate ground of willful failure to pay child support was supported because one statutory ground was sufficient. No separate opinions were filed.
