No. 236425
Kalamazoo Circuit Court

LC No. 99-000234-NA
MONICA CORONATDO,
Respondent-Appellant,
and
JAMES ARTESIAN McDONALD, KEVIN L.
BANKS, and BOBBY JOE BAKER,
Respondents.
Before: Fitzgerald, P.J., and Holbrook, Jr., and Doctoroff, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent-appellant appeals as of right from the trial court’s order terminating her
parental rights to the minor children under MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i) and (g). We affirm. This
appeal is being decided without oral argument pursuant to MCR 7.214(E).
We review for clear error the trial court’s decision whether a statutory ground for
termination was proven be clear and convincing evidence and its decision regarding a child’s
best interests. MCR 5.974(I); In re Trejo Minors, 462 Mich 341, 356-357; 612 NW2d 407
(2000). We conclude that the trial court did not clearly err in finding that the statutory grounds
for termination of respondent-mother’s parental rights under §§ 19b(3)(c)(i) and (g) were
established by clear and convincing evidence. Further, considered in its entirety, the evidence
did not show that the trial court’s determinations were clearly not in the children’s best interests.
MCL 712A.19(b)(5).
