South Central Judicial District, Burleigh County

Oral Argument
6/8/2010
Highlight
Rule 2.2, N.D.R.App.P., applies only to appeals from orders terminating parental rights.
The court may terminate the parental rights of a parent in connection with an adoption proceeding if the parent has abandoned the child.
Whether a child has been abandoned is a question of fact, and the district court's findings will not be reversed on appeal unless they are clearly erroneous.
A guardian ad litem is not a parenting investigator and is not required to write a report.
The court has discretion in allocating a guardian ad litem's expenses.
