There is no such thing.
If you are looking to terminate a parent's rights because he or she has failed to support the child for over a year, you generally need to do this in connection with an adoption. A court is unlikely to terminate parental rights and responsibilities unless there is a replacement parent willing to step in and take responsibility for the child.
