STATE OF MICHIGAN COURT OF APPEALS In re LINDA M. MOXLEY and CANDACE L. MOXLEY, Minors __________________________________________ FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY, UNPUBLISHED September 30, 1997 Petitioner-Appellee, v No. 199603 Wayne Juvenile Court LC No. 89-277493 LINDA MAE MOXLEY, Respondent-Appellant, and THOMAS IRVING, Respondent. Before: Markey, P.J., and Neff and Smolenski, JJ. MEMORANDUM. Respondent-appellant appeals as of right from the juvenile court order that terminated her parental rights to the minor children under MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(ii), (g) and (i); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(3)(c)(ii), (g) and (i). We affirm. The juvenile 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). Moreover, in light of the diligent efforts that were made to secure respondent appellant’s presence at the termination hearing and considering that she has made no showing that she had material evidence to present at the hearing, the court did not abuse its discretion in denying her motion to adjourn the termination hearing. MCR 2.503(C)(2) and (D)(1); Cummings v Detroit, 151 Mich App 347, 351; 390 NW2d 666 (1986). -1 Affirmed. /s/ Jane E. Markey /s/ Janet T. Neff /s/ Michael R. Smolenski -2
