The Court of Appeals of Ohio affirmed the juvenile court’s decision to grant permanent custody of three minor children to Cuyahoga County Department of Children and Family Services and to terminate the parental rights of their father, who appealed the decision. The court held that despite completing required services, the father failed to sufficiently remedy the conditions leading to the children’s removal and did not demonstrate the ability to provide a safe and stable environment.
