IN THE INTEREST OF U.P., A CHILD

_________________________________________________________________

On Appeal from the 328th District Court

Fort Bend County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 115,213

C O N C U R R I N G   O P I N I O N

            Applying the standards of review recently announced by the Texas Supreme Court, the record contains legally and factually sufficient evidence to support the trial court’s findings that appellant engaged in conduct that endangered U.P.’s physical or emotional well-being and that termination of appellant’s parental rights is in U.P.’s best interest.  See Tex. Fam. Code. § 161.001; In re J.F.C., —S.W.3d—, 46 Tex. Sup. Ct. J. 328, 332–35, 2002 WL 31890913, at *5–*7 (Dec. 31, 2002); In re C.H., 89 S.W.3d 17, 25–26 (Tex. 2002); Holley v. Adams, 544 S.W.2d 367, 371–72 (Tex. 1976) (promulgating a nonexclusive list of factors that may be considered when determining the best interest of the child).  Appellant did not preserve error as to his fifth and sixth points by asserting these complaints and obtaining a ruling in the trial court.  See Tex. R. App. P. 33.1(a).  Though I do not join in the majority’s analysis, I concur in the court’s judgment.
