Court: TN Court of Appeals

Attorneys 1: Jessica Conine, Chattanooga, Tennessee, for the appellant, McKala D. S.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmetti, Attorney General & Reporter, and Kathryn A. Baker, Senior Assistant Attorney General, for the appellee, Tennessee Department of Children’s Services.

Attorneys 3: Christina M. Denton, Chattanooga, Tennessee, Guardian ad litem.

Judge(s): MCCLARTY

A mother appeals from the termination of her parental rights to her child on the ground of severe child abuse. She concedes the ground for termination, but challenges the trial court’s finding that termination of her parental rights was in the child’s best interest. We affirm the trial court’s conclusion that clear and convincing evidence supports the aforementioned ground for termination and that termination is in the child’s best interest.
