Following a juvenile court’s finding that one-year-old R. L. is a deprived child due to the lack of care provided by his mother, R. L. appeals through his attorney. Because the record does not support a finding of deprivation, we reverse.

“In considering an appeal from the juvenile court’s deprivation order, we review the evidence from the juvenile court hearings in the light most favorable to the court’s judgment and determine whether any rational trier of fact could have found by clear and convincing evidence that the child was deprived.”1
