1Opinion of the Court
KLEIN, Justice.
In this case, involving the disposition and status of a child (John Doe) under the Child Protective Act (CPA), Hawaii Revised Statutes (HRS) chapter 587 (1993), Doe’s mother (Mother) appeals from a family court order terminating her parental rights, awarding permanent custody to the Department of Human Services (DHS), and denying her motion to compel DHS to return Doe to the Philippines. Mother asserts, inter alia, that the family court never had personal jurisdiction over her enabling it to adjudicate her parental rights. We agree.
