Criminal

WI Court of Appeals – District I

Officials: BRADLEY, J.

Termination of Parental Rights

2015AP986; 2015AP987; 2015AP988 State of Wisconsin v. K.K.

K.K. appeals the orders terminating her parental rights to her three children. She claims the trial court erroneously exercised its discretion when it terminated her parental rights without properly evaluating the harm that would result from severing the legal relationship with K.K. Because the trial court properly considered all of the relevant statutory factors before reaching the reasonable conclusion that termination was in the best interests of K.K.’s children, this court affirms.

Decision

Affirmed.
