In the Matter of BRADLEY WALBECQ, JORDAN
MINAURO and CRYSTAL MINAURO, Minors.
FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY,
UNPUBLISHED
March 26, 1999
Petitioner-Appellee,
v
No. 211559
St. Clair Circuit Court
Family Division
LC No. 96-000093
MARCELENE WALBECQ,
Respondent-Appellant,
and
DAVID BAIN,
Respondent.
Before: O’Connell, P.J., and Jansen and Collins, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent-appellant appeals as of right from the family court order terminating her parental
rights to the minor children. We affirm.
The record indicates that the family court conducted a sufficient inquiry into the voluntariness of
respondent-appellant’s release of her parental rights under MCL 710.29(6); MSA
27.3178(555.29)(6). Further, the court did not abuse its discretion in denying respondent-appellant’s
motion for rehearing to revoke the release. In re Curran, 196 Mich App 380; 493 NW2d 454
(1992); In re Blankenship, 165 Mich App 706; 418 NW2d 919 (1988).
-1
Respondent-appellant has waived appellate review of her argument that she did not voluntarily
release her parental rights by failing to argue this issue in her appellate brief. In re JS & SM, 231 Mich
App 92, 98; 585 NW2d 326 (1998).
Affirmed.
/s/ Peter D. O’Connell
/s/ Kathleen Jansen
/s/ Jeffrey G. Collins
