Court of Appeals of Oregon.

Decided September 15, 1999.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Denise G. Fjordbeck, Assistant Attorney General, argued the cause for appellant. With her on the brief were Hardy Myers, Attorney General, and Michael D. Reynolds, Solicitor General.

D. Olcott Thompson, Salem, filed the brief for respondent Arturo Mendez.

Theresa M. Kohlhoff, Wilsonville, filed the brief for respondent Lisa Mendez, aka Lisa Diaz.

Before LANDAU, Presiding Judge, and LINDER and WOLLHEIM, Judges.

WOLLHEIM, J.

The state appeals the trial court's dismissal of its petition to terminate the parental rights of mother and father to three of their minor children. Because the trial court granted mother and father's motions for dismissal before the close of all the evidence, we review "whether, on the record as a whole, the state introduced sufficient evidence to establish a prima facie case for termination of mother and father's parental rights."
