In Re Robert H. Et Al.

The Tennessee Department of Children’s Services filed a petition to terminate a father’s parental rights as to two children, based on abandonment by failure to provide a suitable home, substantial noncompliance with permanency plans, failure to remedy persistent conditions, and failure to manifest an ability and willingness to assume custody of the child.  The trial court granted the petition, finding that the Department proved all alleged grounds by clear and convincing evidence and that terminating the father’s parental rights was in the best interests of the children.  We affirm.
