STATE OF MICHIGAN COURT OF APPEALS In the Matter of CHRISTIAN ALEXANDER SANCHEZ, Minor. FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY, UNPUBLISHED June 30, 2000 Petitioner-Appellee, v No. 224156 Ingham Circuit Court Family Division LC No. 00-033560-NA TAMMY SANCHEZ, Respondent-Appellant, and ROBERT DEWITT, Respondent. Before: Jansen, P.J., and Hood and Saad, JJ. MEMORANDUM. Respondent-appellant appeals as of right from the trial court order terminating her parental rights to the minor child pursuant to MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i) and (g); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(3)(c)(i) and (g). We affirm. The trial court did not clearly err in finding that the statutory grounds for termination were established by clear and convincing evidence. MCL 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 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); In re JS & SM, 231 Mich App 92, 103; 585 NW2d 326 (1998). Thus, the trial court did not err in terminating respondent-appellant’s parental rights to the child. -1­ -2­ Affirmed. /s/ Kathleen Jansen /s/ Harold Hood /s/ Henry William Saad -3­
