WILLIAMS, Minor.
FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY,
UNPUBLISHED
July 24, 2001
Petitioner-Appellee,
v
No. 232711
Saginaw Circuit Court
Family Division
LC No. 00-026767-NA
LATOYA LINNELL WILLIAMS,
Respondent-Appellant,
and
DEWAYNE HINES,
Respondent.
Before: Wilder, P.J., and Hood and Griffin, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent-appellant appeals as of right from the family court order terminating her
parental rights to the minor child under MCL 712A.19b(3)(g) and (j); MSA
27.3178(598.19b)(3)(g) and (j). We affirm. This case is being decided without oral argument
pursuant to MCR 7.214(E).
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 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, 462 Mich 341, 356-357; 612 NW2d 407 (2000). Thus, the
-1-
family court did not err in terminating respondent-appellant’s parental rights to the child.
Affirmed.
