Adoption/Guardianship: Termination of Parental Rights: Insufficient progress toward reunification
CSA No. 1286, September Term, 2012. Unreported. Opinion by Eyler, James R., J. (retired, specially assigned). Filed April 23, 2013. Appeal from Worcester County Circuit Court. Affirmed.
The trial court did not err in terminating parental rights where of a father who, due to frequent and current incarceration, is a stranger to his child and unfit to parent him; and of a mother who used cocaine while she was pregnant with the child, relapsed when she regained custody of him, exposed him to a controlled substance, and has only recently become compliant with her third services agreement from DSS.
