STATE OF MICHIGAN COURT OF APPEALS In the Matter of KYLE ANDREW HARRIS, Minor. FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY, UNPUBLISHED September 18, 1998 Petitioner-Appellee, v No. 208286 Gladwin Juvenile Court LC No. 97-000043 NA RONALD HARRIS and TAMMY HARRIS, Respondents-Appellants. Before: Hood, P.J., and Griffin and O’Connell, JJ. MEMORANDUM. Respondents appeal as of right from a juvenile court order terminating their parental rights to the minor child under MCL 712A.19b(3)(g) and (i); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(3)(g) and (i). 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, respondents failed to show that termination of their parental rights was clearly not in the child’s best interests. MCL 712A.19b(5); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(5); In re HallSmith, 222 Mich App 470, 472-473; 564 NW2d 156 (1997). Thus, the juvenile court did not err in terminating respondents’ parental rights. Affirmed. /s/ Harold Hood /s/ Richard Allen Griffin /s/ Peter D. O’Connell -1
