J.S. appeals the order terminating her parental rights to three children, M.S., E.D., and J.D., who at the time of trial ranged from five to ten years old. The sole ground for termination of parental rights was J.S.’s failure to substantially comply with the case plan.

The children were initially removed from the home because of ongoing domestic violence involving J.S. and her boyfriend. During the course of the original court-ordered case plan, the mother tested positive for a controlled substance. As a result, four months before the termination of parental rights trial, the case plan was modified to require random drug tests and substance abuse counseling.

In its final order, the trial court terminated J.S.’s parental rights pursuant to section 39.806(1)(e)l., Florida Statutes *1147(2016), finding that J.S. failed to substantially comply with the modified case plan. We have reviewed the trial transcript and accept the Department’s concession that the evidence at the termination of parental rights trial was not legally sufficient to support the trial court’s finding. Accordingly, we reverse the order terminating J.S.’s parental rights and remand for further proceedings.
