Opinion
No. 97-03218.
December 23, 1998.
Appeal from the Circuit Court for Hillsborough County; Perry A. Little, Judge.
Norman A. Palumbo, Jr., Tampa, court appointed for Appellant.
Robert A. Butterworth, Attorney General, Tallahassee, and Dyann W. Beaty, Assistant Attorney General, Tampa, for Appellee.
The mother of J.O., J.M.O., S.O., and E.A. challenges the trial court's order terminating her parental rights. We affirm the final judgment in this matter because after reviewing the record we conclude that the issue regarding improper hearsay was not preserved below and the Department of Children and Families met its burden of establishing the need for termination of parental rights by clear and convincing evidence.
Affirmed.
PARKER, C.J., and FULMER and QUINCE, JJ., Concur.
