In re K.C.green

2 sentences

2020In support, the State cites In re K.C., 2017-Ohio-8383 , 99 N.E.3d 1061 (1st Dist.) for the proposition that “a parent has no standing to appeal an award of permanent custody and a denial of a relative's custody petition where the parent does not challenge the termination of her parental rights and the relative did not appeal the denial of her custody petition.” Id. at ¶ 12.1 However, this case is distinguishable, as Mother appeals from the denial of her own motion requesting that the maternal grandfather be granted legal custody of the children.

2026Therefore, “a parent who does not challenge the termination of her or his own parental rights may not instead assert the rights of a relative who has not appealed the denial of her or his petition for legal custody.” In re K.C., 2017- Ohio-8383, ¶ 8 (1st Dist.); see In re S.F., 2020-Ohio-693, ¶ 51 (2d Dist.) (contrasting a scenario where a parent appeals from the parent’s own motion asking for a relative to be granted legal custody).
