Before: Whitbeck, P.J., and Neff and Hoekstra, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
In these consolidated appeals, respondents appeal as of right from the trial court
order terminating their parental rights to their minor child under MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i),
(g), (j), and (l). We affirm. This case is being decided without oral argument pursuant to
MCR 7.214(E).
The trial court did not 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 respondents’ parental rights was clearly not in the best interests of the
child. MCL 712A.19b(5); In re Trejo, 462 Mich 341, 356-357; 612 NW2d 407 (2000).
The trial court therefore did not err in terminating respondents’ parental rights to the
child.
Affirmed.
/s/ William C. Whitbeck
/s/ Janet T. Neff
/s/ Joel P. Hoekstra
