Petitioner-Appellee,
v
No. 201900
Wayne Juvenile Court
LC No. 95-325898
JODY COOPER,
Respondent-Appellant.
Before: Markey, P.J., and Doctoroff and Smolenski, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent appeals by right the juvenile court order terminating her parental rights to the minor
children under MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i), (g) and (j); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(3)(c)(i), (g) and (j). We
affirm.
The juvenile court did not err in finding that the statutory grounds for termination were
established by clear and convincing evidence. MCR 5.974(I); In re Hall-Smith, 222 Mich App 470,
472-473; 564 NW2d 156 (1997). Nor did the juvenile court clearly err in deciding to terminate
respondent’s parental rights. MCL 712A.19b(5); MSA 17.3178(598.19b)(5), In re Hall-Smith,
supra.
Affirmed.
/s/ Jane E. Markey
/s/ Martin M. Doctoroff
/s/ Michael R. Smolenski
