No. 25A-JC-1223

The court found sufficient evidence that G.V. was seriously endangered, given Mother’s conduct, including physical discipline of A.V. and inconsistent explanations for G.V.’s injuries. It also concluded that coercive intervention was necessary to ensure G.V.’s safety as Mother had not shown cooperation with required interventions. Judge DeBoer authored the opinion.

McKinney School of Law Appellate Clinic, Indianapolis, Indiana; Sarah Y. Faulkner, Certified Legal Intern, Indianapolis, Indiana. Appellee’s attorneys: Office of the Indiana Attorney General.
