In determining whether parental rights should be terminated based on

wedlock, especially when there are ample means to verify one's paternity.
For purposes of § 43-292(1), " abandonment" is a parent's intentionally
withholding from a child, without just cause or excuse, the parent's presence,
care, love, protection, maintenance, and the opportunity for the display of
parental affection for the child.

to pursue transferred assets that are needed to satisfy a child support award.

An action under the UFTA is equitable in nature, and all persons whose rights will

complete justice may be done and that there may be a final determination of the
rights of all parties interested in the subject matter of the controversy
