Termination of Parental Rights • Adoption • Failure to Perform Parental Duties

In re BGR, PICS Case No. 17-0762 (C.P. Lycoming Apr. 21, 2017) McCoy, J. (10 pages).

Clear and convincing evidence supported termination of a biological father’s parental rights where he had no contact with the child and failed to express any concern about her for longer than the six-month period provided by statute. The court concluded the child’s welfare would be served by termination of the father’s parental rights.
