Father appeals a permanency judgment regarding one of his children, dated December 12, 2023, which con- tinued the current plan of adoption for the child, and which continued the child in the legal custody of the Department of Human Services for care, placement, and supervision. The court terminated father’s parental rights in October 2023.

The brief does not contain a Section B. See ORAP 5.90(1)(b).
We affirm.1 Having reviewed the record, including the trial court file, the transcript of the hearings, and the Balfour brief, we have identified no arguably meritorious issues.
