Juveniles
TPR; plea withdrawal

Angela M.K. appeals orders of the circuit court terminating her parental rights to her children, Adrianna K. and Gabriel K. Angela pled no contest to the CHIPS termination ground as to both children. Angela argues that the circuit court should have allowed her to withdraw that plea because it was not knowingly entered. More specifically, she asserts that she did not correctly understand the time component of a CHIPS element. Angela also complains that the circuit court violated a statute by not taking testimony in conjunction with her plea. I reject Angela’s arguments and affirm. This opinion will not be published.
