COURT OF APPEALS
In the Matter of KELLEY SHARELL SULLIVAN
and SHARNITA LYNNETTE LITTLE, Minors.
FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY,
UNPUBLISHED
November 6, 1998
Petitioner-Appellee,
v
No. 206716
Wayne Juvenile Court
LC No. 91-296423
MARCELLA MIRANDA LITTLE,
Respondent-Appellant,
and
KEVIN LAMONT SULLIVAN and LAMONT
MADISON,
Respondents.
Before: Young Jr., P.J., and Wahls and Jansen, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent-appellant appeals as of right from a 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 at least one statutory ground for termination,
specifically § 19b(3)(g), was established by clear and convincing evidence. In re Hall-Smith, 222
Mich App 470, 472-473; 564 NW2d 156 (1997). Further, respondent-appellant failed to show that
termination of her parental rights was clearly not in the children’s best interests. MCL 712A.19b(5);
MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(5). In re Hall-Smith, supra at 473. Thus, the juvenile court did not err in
terminating respondent-appellant’s parental rights to the minor children. Id.
-1
Affirmed.
