O.M., Appellant, v. DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN & FAMILY SERVICES and Guardian Ad Litem Program, Appellees.
No. 3D08-2827.
District Court of Appeal of Florida, Third District.
July 8, 2009.
Albert W. Guffanti, Miami, for appellant.
Karla Perkins, Assistant District Legal Counsel, for Department of Children & Family Services; Hillary Kambour, for Guardian Ad Litem Program.
Before SHEPHERD, SUAREZ, and ROTHENBERG, JJ.

Opinion:
SUAREZ, J.
Based on the competent, substantial evidence before it, the trial court correctly terminated O.M.'s parental rights as to the special needs child, and we find there was no violation of due process throughout. See T.P. v. Dep't. of Children & Family Servs., 935 So.2d 621 (Fla. 3d DCA 2006) (holding standard of review for the sufficiency of evidence supporting termination of parental rights is whether order is supported by substantial competent evidence).
Affirmed.
ROTHENBERG, J., concurs.
