STATE OF MICHIGAN COURT OF APPEALS __________________________________________ In the Matter of ROSLYN CHEESEBORO and KEVIN DEON CHEESEBORO, Minors. FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY, UNPUBLISHED December 19, 1997 Petitioner-Appellee, v No. 199659 Wayne Juvenile Court LC No. 87-265555 ROSLYN CHEESEBORO, Respondent-Appellant. Before: McDonald, P.J., and Wahls and J. R. Weber*, JJ. MEMORANDUM. Respondent appeals by delayed application granted from the juvenile court order terminating her parental rights to the minor child Kevin under MCL 712A.19b(3)(a)(i), (c)(i), (g), and (h); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(3)(a)(i), (c)(i), (g), and (h). We affirm. The juvenile court did not clearly err in finding that statutory grounds for termination were established by clear and convincing evidence. In re Miller, 433 Mich 331, 337; 445 NW2d 161 (1989). Further, the juvenile court did not clearly err in ruling that termination of respondent’s parental rights was in the best interests of the child. In re Hall-Smith, 222 Mich App 470, 472-473; 564 NW2d 156 (1997). As evidenced by respondent’s decade long history of choosing a life of crime over caring for her children, as well as the fact she hardly knew Kevin, there is a reasonable likelihood that Kevin would be harmed if placed in respondent's care and custody. * Circuit judge, sitting on the Court of Appeals by assignment. -1 Affirmed. /s/ Gary R.
