In re Petition for the ADOPTION OF Ashley Nicole MULLINS by Robert FARLEY and Vivian June Farley.

Supreme Court of Appeals of West Virginia.

Decided June 25, 1992.

Petition for Rehearing and Reargument Denied September 29, 1992.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Joan G. Hill, Crandall & Pyles, Charleston, for Robert and Vivian Farley.

James C. Stucky, Charleston, for William Mullins, Jr.

Robert T. Noone, Logan, Guardian Ad Litem.

PER CURIAM:

Robert and Vivian Farley appeal an order of the Circuit Court of Logan County that denied their petition to adopt their granddaughter, Ashley Nicole Mullins, based on a finding that her natural father, William Mullins, Jr., did not intend to abandon his parental rights. Because we agree with the circuit court that evidence of Mr. Mullins' alleged abandonment was not clear and convincing, we affirm the decision of the circuit court.
