|||||
Overview: Alimony award to the husband in the amount of $ 1,000 per month for four years was equitable, because the husband earned approximately half of what the wife earned, not including the wife's interest in the family business, and the amount did not create a financial hardship for the wife.

|||||
Overview: Termination of mother's parental rights, Iowa Code § 232.116(1)(f), was proper as (1) she continued to involve herself with men who abused her; (2) she took her anger out on child both physically and verbally; (3) child would be subjected to harm if returned to the mother's care; and (4) child's current environment provided stability and growth.

|||||
Overview: Fact that during part of time her CINA children lived with their grandmother, mother also lived there for two months, did not mean she had "physical custody" of them such that they were not uninterruptedly removed for statutory period of time and court did not err in terminating the mother's parental rights under Iowa Code § 232.116(1)(h) and (f).

|||||
Overview: Placement of child with father was appropriate under Iowa Code §§ 232.99(4); 232.102(1)(a) because, inter alia, although mother had received parent skill training and participated in supervised visitation, child could not safely be returned to her care as she had not (1) completed drug abuse treatment; and (2) participated in individual counseling.

View this case - free |
|||||
Overview: Convincing evidence, Iowa Code § 232.104(3), showed child could not be returned to father's care, as father had extensive history of drug abuse, demonstrated poor parenting skills, and believed he had done good job of parenting and supervising the child.
