IN RE: Z.P., A MINOR CHILD
APPEAL OF: LYCOMING COUNTY CHILDREN AND YOUTH SERVICES

No. 1214 MDA 2009 2010 PA Super 56 Atlantic: n/a Filed: 4/9/2010

Appeal from the Order entered June 26, 2009
In the Court of Common Pleas of Lycoming County
Orphans’ Court, No. 5987 Adoption
Before: STEVENS, GANTMAN, AND ALLEN, JJ.
Opinion by: GANTMAN, J.
Appellant, Lycoming County Children and Youth Agency (“Agency”), appeals from the order entered in the Lycoming County Court of Common Pleas, which denied the Agency’s petition to terminate Father’s parental rights with respect to his minor child, Z.P. Upon a thorough review of the record, the arguments presented, and the applicable law, we hold the court erred in denying the termination petition. Accordingly, we reverse the order denying the Agency’s petition and remand with instructions to terminate Father’s parental rights.
