Petitioner-Appellee,
v
YULANDA GLEE RILEY, a/k/a YULANDA GAIL
HENDERSON,
No. 204434
Wayne Juvenile Court
LC No. 88-271477
Respondent-Appellant,
and
GARY L. RILEY and MICHAEL WILLIAMS,
Respondents.
Before: Wahls, P.J., and Jansen and Gage, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent mother appeals as of right from a juvenile court order terminating her parental rights
to her children under MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i) and (g); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(3)(c)(i) and (g). We
affirm.
The juvenile court did not clearly err in finding that the statutory grounds for termination set forth
at MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i) and (g) were established by clear and convincing evidence. MCR 5.974(I);
In re Miller, 433 Mich 331, 337; 445 NW2d 161 (1989). Additionally, because respondent mother
failed to rebut the mandatory presumption that termination is clearly in the best interests of the children,
-1
the juvenile court did not clearly err in terminating respondent mother’s parental rights. In re Hamlet
(After Remand), 225 Mich App 505, 515; ___ NW2d ___ (1997); In re Hall-Smith, 222 Mich App
470, 471-474; 564 NW2d 156 (1997).
Affirmed.
