Laura Glodo vs. Warren Evans et al
COA Published Opinion Vacating and Remanding. Laurel County. 10/23/2015
CLAYTON, JUDGE: Laura Glodo appeals the Laurel Circuit Court’s decree awarding permanent custody of her three minor children to Warren and Brenda Evans, the paternal grandparents. Michael Young, the father, waived custody of the three children. After careful consideration, we vacate and remand since the Evanses failed to establish by clear and convincing evidence that Laura was an unfit parent, and therefore, the Laurel Family Court erred in awarding custody of the children to them.
