STATE OF TENNESSEE

DEPARTMENT OF CHILDREN’S SERVICES

PETITIONER

IN THE MATTER OF:

Aaliyah Faye Madison, DOB: 07/05/26

A CHILD UNDER EIGHTEEN (18) YEARS OF AGE

ORDER FOR PUBLICATION

 In this cause, it appears to the Court from the allegations of the Petition that the Department of Children’s Services is seeking to declare Aaliyah Faye Madison a voluntarily delivered child pursuant to T.C.A. § 36-1-142, a copy of said Petition may be obtained at the Office of the Juvenile Court Clerk of Madison County, Jackson, Tennessee. The child was born on July 5, 2026, in Jackson, Tennessee and surrendered at the Jackson-Madison County General Hospital on July 6, 2026, as a Safe Haven baby pursuant to T.C.A. § 68-11-255 in Madison County, Tennessee. Aaliyah Faye Madison is a female infant who has sandy brown hair and weighed approximately six pounds and six ounces. The mother is believed to be from Haywood County, Tennessee.

 Failure by the biological mother to seek contact with the child through the Department of Children’s Services or to revoke the voluntary delivery within thirty (30) days of the date of the last publication of notice shall constitute abandonment of the child and of the mother’s interests.

 Any father of said child who fails to claim paternity by contacting the Department or by registering with the putative father registry within thirty (30) days of the date of the last publication of notice shall be barred from thereafter bringing or maintaining any action to establish paternity of the infant. Such failure by any father will constitute abandonment of any right to notice of, or to a hearing in, any judicial proceeding for the adoption of such infant and that consent of such putative father shall not be required for adoption of the infant. In the event that the biological mother or any father of the child requires additional information, they should contact Brittany Buckley, counsel for the Tennessee Department of Children’s Services, 225 Martin Luther King Blvd, Jackson, TN 38301; Phone 731-421-2000.

 It is, therefore, ORDERED that the biological mother and confidential father be served by publication of the following notice for four (4) consecutive weeks in The West Tennessee News, a newspaper of general circulation in Madison County, Tennessee and in the Brownsville States-Graphic, a newspaper of general circulation in Haywood County, Tennessee.

 The Final Hearing to terminate the parental rights of the biological mother and of any father is scheduled for October 20, 2026, at 2:00 p.m. Failure of said persons claiming an interest in the child to appear at the final hearing will result in the loss of their parental rights to the child.

 It is further ORDERED that if the biological mother or any father fails to enter an appearance or otherwise answer the petition, service of any future notices, motions, orders, or other legal documents in this matter may be made by filing the same with the Clerk of the Juvenile Court of Madison County, Tennessee.

 Enter this 14th day of July 2026.
