Re: child custody
The Court generally treats each parent separately when it comes to determining whether or not to terminate parental rights.
If the father completes his treatment plan, then the child may be returned to or placed with him. If the mother does not complete her treatment plan, the Court may terminate her rights.
These are complex issues, and it is important that they be handled correctly. Therefore, it is important that you consult an experienced family law attorney to find out what options are available to you based on the facts of your particular case.
