Case Number
W2007-01278-COA-R3-PT
I must respectfully dissent from the majority opinion in this case, on the grounds that the proof does not support a finding of willful abandonment by the Father.1 Specifically, there is no evidence that the Father was aware of his duty to visit, a necessary element of willfulness.
