YOU ARE HEREBY NOTIFIED that there has been filed in this court a petition praying that the parent-child relationship between the parents of the above-named child and the above-named child be terminated. The object of the action is to seek an order relinquishing the child to the Petitioners for adoption and to terminate the parent-child relationship.

The child was conceived in December 2004 in Soap Lake, Washington and was born on August 13, 2005. The child's natural mother is HEATHER ANN HENKEL.

The Petitioners are also seeking temporary placement of the child with them. The court hearing on this matter shall be on the 26th day of September 2005, at 9:00 am in the King County Superior Court; address: 516 Third Ave, W325, Seattle, Washington 98104. YOUR FAILURE TO APPEAR AT THIS HEARING MAY RESULT IN A DEFAULT ORDER PERMANENTLY TERMINATING ALL OF YOUR RIGHTS TO THE ABOVE- NAMED CHILD.

You are further notified that any non-consenting parent or alleged father has a right to be represented by an attorney, and an attorney will be appointed for an indigent parent who requests an attorney.

You are further notified that your failure to file a claim of paternity within thirty days of the first publication of this notice or to respond to the petition within thirty days of the first publication of this notice is grounds to terminate your parent-child relationship with respect to the child.

One method of filing your response and serving a copy on the Petitioner is to send them your written response by certified mail with return receipt requested.

WITNESS the Honorable CARLOS Y. VELATEGUI, Judge/Court Commisioner of said Superior Court and the seal of said Court hereunto affixed this 19th day of August, 2005.
