We affirm. This case has been decided without oral argument pursuant to MCR 7.214(E). The juvenile court did not clearly err in finding that the statutory grounds for termination were established by clear and convincing evidence.

In re Hall-Smith, supra. Thus, the juvenile court did not err in terminating respondent’s parental rights to the child. MCL 712A.19b(5); MSA 27.3178 (598.19b)(5). We affirm. /s/ Richard A.
