STATE OF MICHIGAN COURT OF APPEALS In the Matter of DREW ANDERSON, Minor. FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY, UNPUBLISHED February 19, 1999 Petitioner-Appellee, v No. 210681 Hillsdale Circuit Court Family Division LC No. 97-031611 NA FARICA ANDERSON, Respondent-Appellant. Before: Murphy, P.J., and MacKenzie and Talbot, JJ. MEMORANDUM. Respondent-appellant appeals by delayed leave granted from the juvenile court order terminating her parental rights to the minor child under MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i), (c)(ii) and (g); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(3)(c)(i), (c)(ii) and (g). We affirm. The trial 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, respondent-appellant failed to show that termination of her parental rights was clearly not in the child’s best interests. MCL 712A.19b(5); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(5); In re Hall-Smith, 222 Mich App 470, 472-473; 564 NW2d 156 (1997). Thus, the trial court did not err in terminating respondent-appellant’s parental rights to the child. Id. at 473-474. Affirmed. /s/ William B. Murphy /s/ Barbara B. MacKenzie /s/ Michael J. Talbot -1
