In the Matter of LATESHA HALL, Minor.
FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY,
UNPUBLISHED
January 30, 2001
Petitioner-Appellee,
v
No. 229498
Kent Circuit Court
Family Division
LC No. 88-021706-NA
THOMAS HALL,
Respondent-Appellant,
and
DORENIA LINDSEY,
Respondent.
Before: Collins, P.J., and Doctoroff and White, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent-appellant appeals as of right from the family court order terminating his
parental rights to the minor child under MCL 712A.19b(3)(g); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(3)(g).
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(I); In re Miller, 433 Mich 331,
337; 445 NW2d 161 (1989). Further, the evidence did not show that termination of respondentappellant’s parental rights was clearly not in the child’s best interests. MCL 712A.19b(5); MSA
27.3178(598.19b)(5); In re Trejo Minors, 462 Mich 341, 356-357; 612 NW2d 407 (2000). Thus,
the family court did not err in terminating respondent-appellant’s parental right to the child.
