There could be criminal charges pending, but with foster care cases the trial is usually to terminate parental rights, and those rights either are, or are not terminated. There is no conviction per se. The State generally has to prove that they provided adequate opportunity for services and that the parent did not comply with the service plan or remedy the problem that existed.
Hope that helps.
