H.H., mother of R.R., B.F.H., B.C.S.H., minor children, Appellant, v. DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES (2023)

District Court of Appeal of Florida, First District.

H.H., mother of R.R., B.F.H., B.C.S.H., minor children, Appellant, v. DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN AND FAMILIES, Appellee.

No. 1D22-3295

Decided: May 01, 2023

Jason A. Cobb, DeFuniak Springs, for Appellant. Andrew McGinley, General Counsel, Sarah J. Rumph, Tallahassee, and Matthew C. Wilson, Crestview, for Appellee Department of Children and Families. Caitlin Burke, Senior Attorney, Appellate Division, Sara Goldfarb, Statewide Director of Appeals, Tallahassee, and Charles Vocelle, DeFuniak Springs, for Appellee Guardian ad Litem.

Appellant appeals an order terminating her parental rights under section 39.801(3)(d), Florida Statutes (2022). Because the proceedings failed to comply with Appellant's due process rights, we reverse and remand for further proceedings in which Appellant has proper notice and opportunity to be heard.

PER CURIAM.

B.L. THOMAS, WINOKUR, and LONG, JJ., concur.
