In re A.L.P.

2 Citing cases

  1. In re M.L.S

    No. 07-20-00369-CV (Tex. App. May. 4, 2021)

    W.S.'s proffered explanation that the infant having hit his head on a table when he fell off the couch was unlikely to have caused the traumatic and profound injuries observed on the infant according to a medical expert. He further 1) failed to successfully complete court-ordered services 2) continued to use drugs 3) violated his probation in so doing and 4) was sent to prison for twenty years upon conviction of domestic abuse of his niece. Ultimately the Holley factors weigh heavily in favor of the trial court's finding that termination of W.S.'s parental rights is in the best interest of M.L.S. Accord In re A.L.P. No. 11-15-00011-CV 2015 Tex. App. LEXIS 8817 at *10 (Tex. App.—Eastland Aug. 21 2015 pet. denied) (mem. op.) (considering evidence of parent's pattern of domestic violence criminal history and child abuse and concluding that evidence was sufficient to support trial court's conclusion that the child's best interest was served by termination of parental rights). So we hold that the appellate record contains clear and convincing evidence upon which the trial court could legitimately determine that termination of the parental relationship was in the child's best interest.
