Text: 3 incarceration rendered him unable to meet the child’s needs or to protect the child from jeopardy at the hands of his mother. [¶5] The court entered its order terminating parental rights on February 7, 2014, on the grounds that the father was unwilling or unable to take responsibility for the child in a time frame calculated to meet the child’s needs and that termination of parental rights was in the best interest of the child. Pursuant to the termination order, the permanency plan for the child is adoption by his current foster parents. The father timely appealed the order pursuant to 22 M.R.S. § 4006 (2013) and M.R. App. P. 2(b)(3).
