Petitioner-Appellee,

JARRELL MOORE, a/k/a JERRELL MOORE,
No. 228475
Wayne Circuit Court
Family Division
LC No. 98-369248
Respondent-Appellant,
and
ALYSIA RENEE DANN,
Respondent.
Before: Cavanagh, P.J., and Markey and Cooper, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent-appellant appeals by right from the family court order terminating his
parental rights to the minor child under MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i), (g), (h) 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, because at least one ground for termination was
established, the court was required to terminate respondent-appellant’s parental rights unless the
court found that termination was clearly not in the child’s best interests. MCL 712A.19b(5); In
re Trejo, 462 Mich 341, 364-365; 612 NW2d 407 (2000). The court’s finding regarding the
child’s best interests was not clearly erroneous. Trejo, supra. Thus, the family court did not err
in terminating respondent-appellant’s parental rights to the child.
We affirm.
