1Opinion of the CourtHjelm, J.

[¶ 1] The mother -of Aliyah M; appeals from a judgment entered in the District Court (Portland, Eggert, J.) terminating her parental rights. The mother-asserts that the evidence was insufficient to support the court’s judgment, and she also argues, for the first time during the pen-dency of this case, that she was denied effective assistance of counsel during the termination proceedings. Concluding that the judgment is supported by the evidence and that the mother has not presented — in form or in' substance — a prima facie case of attorney inéffectiveness, we affirm.
