Outcome

Excerpt
Appellant mother challenges the district court's order denying her motion for a new trial following the termination of her parental rights. Appellant argues the district court abused its discretion when it denied the motion because she demonstrated that (1) she received ineffective assistance of counsel at trial, which violated her right to a fair trial; (2) she was denied her constitutional right to due process; (3) fraud on the court occurred through false testimony and fabricated reports at trial; and (4) the district court lacked jurisdiction to enter the order terminating her parental rights due to improper venue. Because appellant has not met her burden to demonstrate the district court abused its discretion when it denied her motion for a new trial, we affirm.
