Termination of Parental Rights
2015AP245 State of Wisconsin v. K.G.
Mr. G appeals from an order terminating his parental rights to A.K. and from an order denying his postdisposition motion. He argues that: (1) the trial court failed to ensure that his stipulation to grounds was made voluntarily and with an understanding of the nature of the failure-to-assumeparental-responsibility ground; (2) WIS. STAT. § 48.415(6), as applied to him, violates his right to substantive due process; and (3) the trial court erroneously exercised its discretion when it denied him a new dispositional hearing based upon alleged newly discovered evidence. For the reasons which follow, we affirm.
