No. 11-11-00053-CV __________ IN THE INTEREST OF J.T., A CHILD
On Appeal from the 35th District Court Brown County, Texas Trial Court Cause No. CV 10-01-009

MEMORANDUM OPINION The trial court entered an order terminating the parental rights of J.T.'s mother and father. The father (appellant) has filed a notice of appeal from the termination order. J.T.'s mother, who voluntarily relinquished her rights, has not filed an appeal. We affirm. Issues Appellant presents four issues for review. In the first and second issues, appellant asserts that the evidence is legally and factually insufficient to support the finding that termination is in the best interest of J.T. In his third and fourth issues, appellant challenges the legal and factual sufficiency of the evidence supporting the finding that he knowingly placed or knowingly allowed J.T. to remain in conditions or surroundings that endangered J.T.'s physical or emotional well-being.

Legal and Factual Sufficiency Termination of parental rights must be supported by clear and convincing evidence. TEX. FAM. CODE ANN.
