STATE OF MICHIGAN COURT OF APPEALS __________________________________________ In the Matter of CATHERINE GASIOR, DOMINIC GASIOR and DANIEL GASIOR, Minor. FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY, UNPUBLISHED July 25, 1997 Petitioner-Appellee, v No. 199602 St. Clair Probate Court LC No. 94-000319 PATRICIA GASIOR, Respondent-Appellant. Before: Jansen, P.J., and Wahls and P.R. Joslyn*, JJ. MEMORANDUM. Respondent appeals as of right from the probate court order terminating her parental rights to the minor children under MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i) and (g); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(3)(c)(i) and (g). We affirm. This case has been decided without oral argument pursuant to MCR 7.214(E). The probate court did not clearly err in finding that the statutory grounds for termination were established by clear and convincing evidence. MCR 5.974(I); In re Miller, 433 Mich 331, 337; 445 NW2d 161 (1989). Further, respondent failed to show that termination of her parental rights was clearly not in the children’s best interest. In re Hall-Smith, 222 Mich App 470, 473; ___ NW2d ___ (1997). Thus, the probate court did not err in terminating respondent’s parental rights to the children. MCL 712A.19b(5); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(5). Affirmed. /s/ Kathleen Jansen /s/ Myron H. Wahls /s/ Patrick R. Joslyn * Circuit judge, sitting on the Court of Appeals by assignment. -1­
