The opinion

I am deeply troubled by the factual circumstances involved in this action. I agree with Judge Moore insofar as he concludes that the Cleburne County Department of Human Resources failed to present clear and convincing evidence indicating that the child remained dependent at the time of the July 10, 2007, hearing.
