Court terminated parental rights of mother, who during termination proceedings was represented by ten different attorneys, one of whom reprersented two other parties and one of whom represented one other party during course of proceedings. Per se conflict of interest requires reversal of termination, as prejudice is presumed in unacceptable rotation of representation. (ZENOFF, concurring; HUDSON, dissenting.)
