INTRODUCTION

¶ 1 This case began as a petition for adoption of the minor child P.N. which was challenged by both the biological father and the biological mother. The district court dismissed the adoption petition, but granted custody to the couple seeking adoption and denied any visitation to the biological parents. The parents appeal this ruling. We reverse and remand to the district court.
