PER CURIAM:
Elizabeth Geddings appeals the family court's order terminating her parental rights to her minor children. See S.C. Code Ann. § 63-7-2570 (Supp. 2014). Upon a thorough review of the record and the family court's findings of facts and conclusions of law pursuant to Ex Parte Cauthen, 291 S.C. 465, 354 S.E.2d 381 (1987), we find no meritorious issues that warrant briefing. Accordingly, we affirm the family court's ruling and relieve Geddings's counsel.
We decide this case without oral argument pursuant to Rule 215, SCACR.
