COURT OF APPEALS
In the Matter of KEVIN LEVI SNOOK and
ALEXANDER L. SNOOK, Minors.
FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY,
UNPUBLISHED
September 11, 1998
Petitioner-Appellee,
v
KEVIN LEE SNOOK, JR. and PENNY PATRICIA
SNOOK,
No. 206731
Kalamazoo Juvenile Court
LC No. 92-00037 NA
Respondents-Appellants.
Before: Holbrook, Jr., P.J., and Wahls and Cavanagh, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondents appeal as of right from a juvenile court order terminating their parental rights to the
minor children under MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i), (c)(ii) and (g); MSA 27.3178(598.19b) (3)(c)(i), (c)(ii)
and (g). We affirm.
The juvenile 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, respondents failed to show that termination of their parental rights was
clearly not in the children’s best interests. MCL 712A.19b(5); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(5); In re
Hall-Smith, 222 Mich App 470, 472-473; 564 NW2d 156 (1997). Thus, the juvenile court did not
err in terminating respondents’ parental rights to the children. Id.
Affirmed.
