Juveniles
TPR; evidence

Jennifer B. appeals an order of the circuit court terminating her parental rights to her child, Mercedes F. Jennifer argues that the circuit court erred when, at the grounds phase, it improperly admitted evidence, including testimony by Mercedes’ therapist about Mercedes’ mental health diagnosis and treatment. Jennifer contends that the evidence was either irrelevant to the grounds phase or, if relevant, was unduly prejudicial. She asserts that reversal and remand for a new trial is warranted. I disagree, and affirm the circuit court. This opinion will not be published.

2011AP1524 In re the termination of parental rights to Mercedes F.

Dist IV. Rock County, Werner, J., Lundsten, P.J.

Attorneys: For Appellant: Bosben, Gina Frances, Madison; For Respondent: Timmerman, Jodi, Janesville
