STATE OF MICHIGAN
COURT OF APPEALS
In the Matter of CHARLENE JEAN LEE, Minor.
FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY,
UNPUBLISHED
August 20, 1999
Petitioner-Appellee,
v
ANGELA PHILLIPS,
No. 209411
Wayne Circuit Court
Family Division
LC No. 96-339018
Respondent-Appellant,
and
CHARLES LEE,
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)(g); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(3)(g). We affirm.
Respondent-appellant does not challenge the family court’s determination that § 19b(3)(g) was
established by clear and convincing evidence. Rather, she argues only that termination of her parental
rights was not in the child’s best interests.
Our review of the record convinces us that respondent-appellant failed to show 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 Hall-Smith, 222 Mich App 470, 472-473; 564 NW2d 156 (1997).
Thus, the family court did not err in terminating respondent-appellant’s parental rights to the child. Id.
Affirmed.
