Respondent-Appellant.
Before: Saad, P.J., and Hood and McDonald, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
-1
In these consolidated appeals, respondent Irvin appeals as of right from the probate court order
terminating his parental rights to Janavin Irvin under MCL 712A.19b(3)(a)(ii) and (h); MSA
27.3178(598.19b)(3)(a)(ii) and (h), and respondent Price appeals as of right from the probate court
order terminating her parental rights to Janavin Irvin and Anthony Price under MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i);
MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(3)(c)(i). We affirm.
The probate court did not clearly err in finding that the statutory grounds for termination under §
3(a)(ii) as to respondent Irvin and under §3(c)(i) as to respondent Price were established by clear and
convincing evidence. MCR 5.974(I); In re Miller, 433 Mich 331, 337; 445 NW2d 161 (1989).
Because there was at least one statutory ground supporting the termination of respondent Irvin’s
parental rights, any error by the probate court in terminating his parental rights under §3(h) was
harmless. See In re Powers, 208 Mich App 582, 592-593; 528 NW2d 799 (1995); In re Perry, 193
Mich App 648, 650-651; 484 NW2d 768 (1992).
Affirmed.
