STATE OF MICHIGAN COURT OF APPEALS __________________________________________ In the Matter of MICHAEL L. ROSS, O’SHEA A. PRICE AND WILLIAM WILLIAMS, Minors. FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY, UNPUBLISHED May 7, 1999 Petitioner-Appellee, v No. 213793 Wayne Circuit Court Family Division LC No. 93-306809 LATONIA RENEE SHAWVER, Respondent-Appellant, and DAVID LEON ROSS, LARON ALEXANDER PRICE, and JAMES FREDERICK WILLIAMS, Respondents. Before: Kelly, P.J., and Neff and Smolenski, JJ. MEMORANDUM. Respondent-appellant appeals as of right from the family 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. This case is being decided without oral argument pursuant to MCR 7.214(E). The family 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-appellant failed to show that termination of her 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); see also MCR 5.974(E)(2). -1­ Thus, the family court did not err in terminating respondent-appellant’s parental rights to the children. In re Hall-Smith, supra. Affirmed. /s/ Michael J. Kelly /s/ Janet T. Neff /s/ Michael R. Smolenski -2­
