K. DEAN, Minors.
FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY,
UNPUBLISHED
November 25, 1997
Petitioner-Appellee,
v
No. 201572
Wayne Juvenile Court
LC No. 93-307899
PATRICIA ANN DEAN,
Respondent-Appellant,
and
ANDRE MOORE and MARK THOMPSON,
Respondents.
Before: Jansen, P.J., and Fitzgerald and Young, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent-appellant appeals as of right from the juvenile court order terminating her parental
rights to the minor children under MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i), (g) and (j); MSA
27.3178(598.19b)(3)(c)(i), (g) and (j). We affirm.
The juvenile court did not clearly 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 court did not commit clear error in ruling that termination of
respondent-appellant’s parental rights was in the best interests of the children. MCL 712A.19b(5);
MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(5); MCR 5.974(E)(2); In re Hall-Smith, 222 Mich App 470, 472-473; 564
NW2d 156 (1997).
