A.S. v. DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN & FAMILIES

No. 4D14-3571.

162 So.3d 335 (2015)

A.S., the Father, Appellant, v. DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN & FAMILIES, J.A., and Guardian Ad Litem Program, Appellees.

District Court of Appeal of Florida, Fourth District.

Rehearing En Banc Denied May 14, 2015.

Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Frank A. Kreidler , Lake Worth, for appellant.

Rosemarie Farrell , Orlando, for appellee DCF.

Jorge Anton , Attorney Ad Litem, Legal Aid Society of P.B. County, Inc., West Palm Beach, for appellee J.A.

Patricia M. Propheter , Sanford, for appellee Guardian Ad Litem Program.

The case before us arises from the termination of parental rights of A.S., the father. We find the trial court erred in finding that A.S. abandoned his child and that termination of his parental rights was the least restrictive means available. Accordingly, we reverse and remand for further proceedings.
