In Re J.C. de Wisconsin Supreme Court Resumen del Libro

In this termination of parental rights appeal, we confront the statutory right-to-counsel disparity that exists between indigent parents in a private termination suit and indigent parents in a termination suit brought by Child Protective Services (CPS). Indigent parents in a private termination of parental rights suit possess no statutory right to appointed counsel while indigent parents in a CPS-initiated suit do. See TEX. FAM. CODE ANN. § 107.013(a)(1) (Vernon Supp. 2007) (mandating appointment of attorney ad litem for an indigent parent "in a suit filed by a governmental entity in which termination of the parent-child relationship is sought"). Here, although CPS initiated the suit to terminate the parental rights of Appellant Tracy, who is J.C.s mother, in a coordinated maneuver, CPS subsequently nonsuited its termination suit, and on the same day, J.C.s foster parents filed their own private termination suit. Consequently, because she was now defending a private termination suit, instead of a CPS-prosecuted termination suit, Tracy was forced to proceed pro se in the trial court and likewise proceeds pro se here. Because there is no relief available to Appellant, we will affirm.
