In the Matter of JESSICA COLE-COBB and DAVID COBB, Minors. FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY, Petitioner-Appellee, v DAVID L. COBB, SR., Respondent-Appellant, and TRACEY COLE, Respondent. No. 229627 Kent Circuit Court Family Division LC No. 98-199700-NA Before: Talbot, P.J., and Sawyer and F. L. Borchard*, JJ. MEMORANDUM. Respondents-appellants Tracey Cole and David L. Cobb, Sr., appeal as of right from the trial court order terminating their parental rights to the minor children under 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. MCR 5.974(I); In re Miller, 433 Mich 331, 337; 445 NW2d 161 (1989). Further, the evidence did not show that termination of respondentsappellants’ parental rights was clearly not in the children’s best interests. MCL 712A.19b(5); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(5); In re Trejo, 462 Mich 341, 356-357; 612 NW2d 407 (2000). Thus, the trial court did not err in terminating respondents-appellants’ parental rights to the children. Id. Affirmed. /s/ Michael J. Talbot /s/ David H. Sawyer /s/ Fred L. Borchard * Circuit judge, sitting on the Court of Appeals by assignment.
