1Opinion of the Court

HECHT, Judge.

Joe, Sr. appeals the juvenile court’s termination of his parental rights with respect to his son, Joe, Jr. He contends the court erred in reopening and reconsidering the record and in admitting new evidence after it issued a ruling dismissing the State’s petition to terminate his parental rights. He claims even if the court did not err in reconsidering the termination of parental rights issue, there was not clear and convincing evidence presented during the first and second trial that Joe, Jr. could not be returned to his custody. We reverse and remand to the juvenile court.
