IN RE M.C., JR.

No. 2D04-1026.

899 So.2d 486 (2005)

In the Interest of M.C., JR., a child. M.G.C., Appellant, v. M.C., the Mother, Appellee.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Second District.

April 15, 2005.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

M.G.C., pro se.

Jeanne T. Tate, Danelle D. Barksdale, Martha A. Curtis, and Steven Hurwitz of Jeanne T. Tate, P.A., Tampa, for Appellee.


FULMER, Judge.

M.G.C., the Father, appeals from a final summary judgment that terminated his parental rights to his child, M.C., Jr. We reverse the order terminating the Father's parental rights because the record does not reflect that the trial court gave the Father the opportunity to be represented by court-appointed counsel in this proceeding, and the record indicates that the Father was denied the opportunity to be present for the final hearing.
