IN the INTEREST OF A.F.L., a child N.S.L. and P.D.L., Petitioners and Appellees v. B.M.W., Respondent and Appellant and Department of Human Services of North Dakota, Respondent
No. 20170203
Supreme Court of North Dakota.
Filed 7/12/2017
Jared J. Hines, Fargo, ND, for petitioners and appellees.
Kiara C. Kraus-Parr, Grand Forks, ND, for respondent and appellant.

Opinion:
Per Curiam.
[¶ 1] B.W. appealed a district court's order terminating his parental rights to A.F.L. On appeal, B.W. argues the district court was clearly erroneous in finding B.W. abandoned A.F.L, and that it was in A.F.L.'s best interest to terminate B.W.'s parental rights. Because the district court's findings were not clearly erroneous, we summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2).
