This Amended Complaint is being filed to include other alias names that the Defendant mother has been known to use. This Amended Complaint is being filed as a matter of course, pursuant to Rule 15(a), SCRCP in that no responsive pleading has been served. Plaintiffs respectfully allege:

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

2. Information on Plaintiffs: The Plaintiffs are the foster parents of Angela licensed by DSS. The Plaintiffs reside in South Carolina. The Plaintiffs had no prior relationship with Angela.

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). c. Child is not an Indian Child: On information and belief, the child is not an Indian Child as defined by the Indian Child Welfare Act (ICWA), 25 U.S.C. Section 1901 et seq., and the provisions of ICWA do not apply to this action. d. Child in Legal Custody of DSS: The child is in the legal 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 on September 13, 2022. e. Placement with Foster Parents: DSS placed Angela into foster care with Plaintiffs on September 14, 2022 when she was just five (5) days old.

4. Biological Mother’s Information: The biological mother of the child is Linda Denmark, who has also been known as Victoria Hudson and/or Angela Ferguson.

5. Biological Father’s Information: On information and belief, the biological father of the child is unknown.

6. Jurisdiction and Venue: This Court has jurisdiction over the subject matter and the parties. Venue is proper in the Family Court in Richland County, South Carolina, as the child is in the legal custody of Richland County DSS.

FIRST CAUSE OF

ACTION AGAINST

DEFENDANT

BIOLOGICAL MOTHER (For termination of parental rights of

Biological Mother)

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

8. Grounds for TPR of Biological Mother’s Parental Rights: On information and belief, and pursuant to South Carolina Code Sections 63- 7-2570. the biological mother’s parental rights in and to the child 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 have 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. Pursuant to South Carolina Code Section 63- 7-2570(3), the child has lived outside the home of the parent for a period of time exceeding six (6) months, during which time the biological mother; (i) has willfully failed to visit the minor child; and (ii) has willfully failed to maintain contact with the minor child, despite the absence of any restriction or prevention from contact or visitation by court order or by actions of the Plaintiff. d. Pursuant to South Carolina Code Section 63- 7-2570(4), 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 willfully failed to support the child. e. Pursuant to South Carolina Code Section 63- 7-2570(7), the child has been abandoned by the parent, as defined in Section 63-7-20,

9. The child has 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.

10. Wherefore, Plaintiffs seek the termination of the biological mother’s parental rights.

SECOND CAUSE OF

ACTION AGAINST

JOHN DOE

(For Termination of Parental Rights against any unknown Father)

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

12. Responsible Father Registry: Plaintiffs’ counsel will search the SouthCarolina Responsible Father Registry. If the birth father failed to register, this failure constitutes an implied irrevocable waiver of the father’s right to notice of the adoption proceedings. If a birth father has registered, the Plaintiffs will serve him with notice of adoption proceedings. The Plaintiffs allege upon information and belief that this man (John Doe) is not married to the biological mother. John Doe has not maintained substantial and continuous or repeated contact with minor child in that he has not paid support for minor children, has not visited minor children or had regular communication with minor child. Plaintiffs allege the consent of John Doe is not required pursuant to South Carolina Code Section 63-9-310(A)(4). 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’s parental rights in and to the child should be terminated pursuant to South Carolina Code Section 63-7-2570(3), (4), and (7).

13. The child has thrived in the care of Plaintiffs. It is in the best interest of the child for the parental rights of John Doe to be terminated so that the child may be adopted by Plaintiffs.

14. Wherefore, Plaintiffs seek the termination of any parental rights John Doe may have in and to the child.

THIRD CAUSE OF

ACTION FOR

ADOPTION OF CHILD

BY PLAINTIFFS

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

16. Plaintiffs Seek to Adopt Child/ Plaintiffs are Fit Parents: Plaintiffs desire to adopt the child, establishing the relationship of parent and child between themselves and the child. Plaintiffs are the fit and proper persons to care for the child and to provide for the child’s welfare.

17. Adoption Investigations: Plaintiffs will be providing an adoptive pre-placement investigation, pursuant to South Carolina Code Section 63- 9-520. Further, on information and belief, DSS will be providing a background investigation on the child and the child’s biological family. On information and belief, DSS will be providing the investigation reports to the Court.

18.
