FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY,
UNPUBLISHED
December 21, 1999
Petitioner-Appellee,
v
DARYL KEITH MILES, a/k/a DARYL KEITH
COOK,
No. 218267
Wayne Circuit Court
Family Division
LC No. 95-324379
Respondent-Appellant,
and
DEBORAH ANN GRANTHAM and IRWIN
McDANIEL, a/k/a IRWINE McDANIEL,
Respondents.
Before: Saad, P.J., and McDonald and Gage, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent-appellant appeals as of right from an order terminating his parental rights to the
minor child, Daryl Melinda Grantham, pursuant to MCL 712A.19b(3)(g) and (j); MSA
27.3178(598.19b)(3)(g) and (j). We affirm.
The trial 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 his parental rights
was clearly not in the child’s best interests. MCL 712A.19b(5); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(5); In re
-1
Hall-Smith, 222 Mich App 470, 472-473; 564 NW2d 156 (1997). Thus, the trial court did not err in
terminating respondent-appellant’s parental rights to the child. Id.
Affirmed.
