STATE OF MICHIGAN
COURT OF APPEALS
In the Matter of CV and JF, Minors.
FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY,
UNPUBLISHED
June 26, 2001
Petitioner-Appellee,
v
No. 230917
Macomb Circuit Court
Family Division
LC No. 99-047003
HEATHER FRANKLIN,
Respondent-Appellant.
Before: Smolenski, P.J., and McDonald and Jansen, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent appeals as of right from the family court order terminating her parental rights
to the minor children under MCL 712A.19b(3)(b)(ii), (c)(i), (g) and (j); MSA
27.2178(598.19b)(3)(b)(ii), (c)(i), (g) and (j). We affirm.
The family 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 Trejo, 462 Mich 341,
356-357; 612 NW2d 407 (2000). Further, the evidence did not show that termination of
respondent’s parental rights was clearly not in the children’s best interests. MCL 712A.19b(5);
MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(5); Trejo, supra.
Affirmed.
/s/ Michael R. Smolenski
/s/ Gary R. McDonald
/s/ Kathleen Jansen
