Minor.
FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY,
UNPUBLISHED
August 13, 1999
Petitioner-Appellee,
v
MONICA R. SLOSS,
No. 213726
Wayne Circuit Court
Family Division
LC No. 92-299943
Respondent-Appellant,
and
ALFONSO FORD,
Respondent.
Before: White, P.J., and Markey and Wilder, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent-appellant appeals as of right from the family court order terminating her parental
rights to the minor child under MCL 712A.19b(3)(i); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(3)(i). We affirm.
The family court did not clearly err in finding that the statutory ground for termination was
established by clear and convincing evidence, MCR 5.974; In re Miller, 433 Mich 331, 337; 445
NW2d 161 (1989), and respondent-appellant does not argue that termination of her parental rights was
clearly not in the child’s best interests. MCL 712A.19b(5); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(5); In re HallSmith, 222 Mich App 470, 472-473; 564 NW2d 156 (1997). Nor would the evidence support such
a finding. Thus, the family court did not err in terminating respondent-appellant’s parental rights to the
child. Id.
Affirmed.
