APPEAL FROM THE VAN BUREN COUNTY CIRCUIT COURT [NO. 71JV-20-13] HONORABLE SUSAN WEAVER, JUDGE AFFIRMED

Leah Lanford, Arkansas Commission for Parent Counsel, for appellant.

Ellen K. Howard, Ark. Dep't of Human Services, Office of Chief Counsel, for appellee.

CINDY GRACE THYER, Judge

Richard Reynolds appeals the Van Buren County Circuit Court's order terminating his parental rights to his children, Minor Child 1 (MC1), born in 2008, and Minor Child 2 (MC2), born in 2015. Reynolds raises the same points on appeal as are made in Reynolds v. Arkansas Department of Human Services, 2023 Ark.App. 287, __ S.W.3d __, which is also handed down today. The relevant facts, Reynolds's arguments, and this court's conclusions are set forth in the companion case and are incorporated herein. Accordingly, we affirm the termination of Reynolds's parental rights as to MC1 and MC2.

Affirmed.

VIRDEN and HIXSON, JJ., agree.
