STATE OF MICHIGAN
COURT OF APPEALS
In the Matter of RW, LLW and LDB, JR., Minors.
FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY,
UNPUBLISHED
December 21, 2001
Petitioner-Appellee,
v
No. 232153
Wayne Circuit Court
Family Division
LC No. 99-381075
FELICIA LEE WILSON,
Respondent-Appellant.
Before: White, P.J. and Talbot and E.R. Post*, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent-appellant appeals as of right from the trial court order terminating her
parental rights to the minor children under MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i), (g) and (j). We affirm. This
case is being decided without oral argument pursuant to MCR 7.214(E).
The trial court did not clearly err in finding that §§ 19b(3)(c)(i), (g) and (j) were
established by clear and convincing evidence. MCR 5.974(I), In re Miller, 433 Mich 331, 337;
445 NW2d 161 (1989). Petitioner’s evidence established that respondent-appellant failed to
resolve her drug abuse problem and failed to establish a stable lifestyle. Because the evidence
did not show that termination of respondent-appellant’s parental rights was clearly not in the
children’s best interests, the trial court did not err in terminating her parental rights. MCL
712A.19b(5); In re Trejo, 462 Mich 341, 356-357; 612 NW2d 407 (2000).
Affirmed.
