COMPLAINT TO THE PARTIES ABOVE NAMED: Plaintiffs respectfully allege:

1. Action Seeking Termination of Parental Rights and Adoption: In this action, Plaintiffs seek to adopt the subject child, Joshua (“child”) and seek to terminate the parental rights of the biological parents of the minor child.

2. Information on Plaintiffs: Plaintiffs, Christin Lee Bishop and Heather Nicole Bishop are a married couple and reside in South Carolina. They are foster parents of the subject child, licensed by DSS.

3. Child’s Information: Joshua was born in 2017 (“child”). Joshua currently resides with Plaintiffs under a foster care arrangement with DSS. a. Special Needs Child: On information and belief, the minor child is a special needs child, as defined in South Carolina Code Section 63-9-30(10), being child at risk for mental, emotional or developmental disabilities arising from the abuse and/ or neglect which brought the minor childinto DSS care. Joshua is currently under the care of a Gastroenterologist and takes medication daily due to stomach issues. He previously received early intervention services due to his delay is communication, socialization, and emotional skills, and is currently participating in play therapy at the request of his pediatrician due to his display of fearful behavior and some delay in his mental and emotional development. b. Child NOT Indian Child: On information and belief, the child is not an Indian Child as defined in 25 U.S.C. Section 1901 et seq. (” ICWA”), and the provisions of ICWA do not apply to this action. c. Child in Legal Custody of DSS: The child is in the l^al custody of DSS, having been removed from the biological parents upon grounds of abuse and neglect. On information and belief, the child came into DSS foster care originally on or around July 18, 2019. d. Placement with Foster Parents: DSS placed the child into foster care with Plaintiffs originally upon his entry into foster care on July 18, 2019. The child has continuously resided with the Plaintiffs since that time.

4. DSS Information: Defendant South Carolina Department of Social Services (” DSS”) has a local office in Richland County, South Carolina.

5. Biological Mother’s Information: On information and belief, the biological mother of the child is Elizabeth Goins, who on information and belief resides in the state of Oklahoma.

The Plaintiffs allege upon information and belief that the biological mother and this man (John Doe) have not lived together continuously during the six months immediately preceding the birth of the minor Defendant, they are not married to each other nor has he paid any amount of support for the child or for the expenses incurred with the pregnancy or with the birth of the child.

Biological Mother)

8. All the above allegations, not inconsistent herewith, are realleged as if set out verbatim in this cause of action.

9. Grounds for TPR of Biological Mother’s Parental Rights: On information and belief, and pursuant to South Carolina Code Sections 63-7-2570 and 63-7- 40, the biological mother has forfeited any and all parental rights she may have had in and to the child, and any such parental rights which she may have should be terminated. The grounds justifying such termination are as follows: a. Pursuant to South Carolina Code Section 63- 7- 2570( 1), the child or another child while residing in the parent’s domicile has been harmed as defined in South Carolina Code Section 63-7-20, and because of the severity or repetition of the abuse or neglect, it is not reasonably likely that the home can be made safe within twelve months; b. Pursuant to South Carolina Code Section 63- 7-2570(2), the child has been removed from the parent pursuant to Subarticle 3 of the South Carolina Children’s Code or South Carolina Code Section 63- 7- 1660 and has been out of the home for a period of six months following the adoption of a placement plan by court order or by agreement between the department and the parent and the parent has not remedied the conditions which caused the removal. c. The child has lived outside the home of the birth mother for a period of time exceeding six (6) months, during which time the birth mother; (i) has willfully failed to visit the minor child; and (ii) has willfully failed to maintain contact with the subject minor child, despite the absence of any restriction or prevention from contact or visitation by Court Order or by actions of the Plaintiff, and, therefore the parental rights of the birth mother should be terminated pursuant to South Carolina Code Section 63-7-2570 (3); d. The child has lived outside the home of the parent for a period of over six months and during that time the biological mother has wilfully failed to support the child as contemplated by South Carolina Code Section 63- 7-2570(4). e. Pursuant to South Carolina Code Section 63- 7-2570(7), the child been abandoned by the biological mother, as defined in Section 63-7-20.

10. The child have thrived in the care of Plaintiffs. It is in the best interest of the child for the parental rights of the biological mother to be terminated so that the child may be adopted by Plaintiffs.

12. All the above allegations, not inconsistent herewith, are realleged as if set out verbatim in this cause of action.

13. Consent/Relinquishmeiit of Unmarried Biological Father is Not Required: On information and belief, the biological father is not married to the biological mother and has failed to dp the minimum things necessary to establish or maintain his parental rights in and to the child, as contemplated by South Carolina Code Section 63- 9-310(A). a. On information and belief, according to the terms of South Carolina Code Section 63- 9- 310(A)(4), where the child subject to adoption are over six months of age, the unmarried biological father is not a person who must consent to the adoption. b. The biological father has failed to maintain substantial and continuous or repeated contact with the child, required by South Carolina Code Section 63- 9- 310( a)( 4)( a), based upon the following:

( 5) He has not maintained regular communication with the child or with the person or agency having lawful custody of the child as contemplated by South Carolina Code Section 63-9-10(A)(4)(c).

14. Alternative Relief- Grounds for TPR of Biological Father’s Parental Rights: Alternatively, if the biological father of the child were to properly file a contest to this adoption, and if it were to be determined that the biological father is a person whose consent is required, on information and belief, the biological father has forfeited any and all parental rights he may have had in and to the child, and any such parental rights should be terminated based upon one or more of the grounds set forth in South Carolina Code Section 63-7-2570, including, but not limited to, the following: a. The child has lived outside the home of the parent for a period of over six months and during that time the biological father has wilfully failed to visit the child as contemplated by South Carolina Code Section 63-7- 2570(3), and the parent was not prevented from visiting by the party having custody or by court order. b. The child has lived outside the home of the parent for a period of over six months and during that time, the biological father has wilfully failed to support the child as contemplated by South Carolina Code Section 63- 7-2570(4). c.
