COURT OF APPEALS
In the Matter of M.F., K.Q., and D.Q., Minors.
FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY,
UNPUBLISHED
April 9, 2002
Petitioner-Appellee,
v
No. 234340
Muskegon Circuit Court
Family Division
LC No. 99-028120-NA
MELODY SANES,
Respondent-Appellant,
and
HYSIA FUKUI and DWIGHT QUINN,
Respondents-Not Participating.
Before: K. F. Kelly, P.J., and Doctoroff and Cavanagh, 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.
The trial court did not clearly err in finding that the statutory grounds for termination
were established by clear and convincing evidence. See MCR 5.974(I); In re Miller, 433 Mich
331, 337; 445 NW2d 161 (1989). Further, the evidence did not show that termination of
respondent-appellant’s parental rights was not clearly in the children’s best interests. See MCL
712A.19b(5); In re Trejo Minors, 462 Mich 341, 356-357; 612 NW2d 407 (2000). In addition,
the trial court properly stated its findings of facts and conclusions of law on the record. See
MCR 5.974(G)(1) and (3). Thus, the trial court did not err in terminating respondent-appellant’s
parental rights to the children.
Affirmed.
