Baker v. MARION CTY. OFFICE OF FAMILY AND CHILDREN
Indiana Court of Appeals
1Opinion of the Court
OPINION
MATHIAS, Judge.
Sharon Baker ("Mother") and Darryl Cole ("Father") appeal the Marion Superi- or Court's order terminating their parental rights to their child, D.C. 1 Mother and Father argue that a prohibited conflict of interest arose based upon their joint representation by appointed counsel and that neither Mother nor Father validly consented to a waiver of the conflict. 2 Because we find the issue of whether there was a prohibited conflict of interest dispositive, we do not reach the waiver issue.
We affirm.
