1Opinion of the Court

h COOKS, Judge.

This matter arises from a proceeding initiated by the State of Louisiana to terminate the parental rights of Sadie Washington Mitchell and Christopher Mitchell. The trial court terminated the parental rights of both parents after finding no reasonable expectation that either parent is likely to make any significant improvement in the near future, that they failed to follow the State’s case plan, and that termination of parental rights is in the best interest of the children. Both parents appeal, separately. For the following reasons, we affirm in part and reverse in part.
