In the Interest of R.G., A.G., and V.G., Children

Summary

The Seventh Court of Appeals of Texas at Amarillo affirmed an order terminating the parental rights of the mother and father of three children. The mother challenged only the legal and factual sufficiency of the evidence supporting the best-interest finding, while the father's appointed counsel filed an Anders brief asserting that no arguable appellate issues existed. The court overruled the mother's issue, independently found no arguable basis for the father's appeal, and affirmed the termination order.

Holdings

1. The evidence was legally and factually sufficient to support the trial court's finding that termination of mother's parental rights was in the children's best interests.
2. After independently examining the entire record, the court found no arguable issue or plausible basis for reversal and affirmed the termination of father's parental rights.

Questions Presented

1. Whether legally and factually sufficient evidence supported the finding that termination of mother's parental rights was in the children's best interests.
2. Whether father's Anders brief and the appellate record presented any arguable issue warranting reversal of the termination order.

Disposition

affirmed
