STATE OF MICHIGAN
COURT OF APPEALS
In the Matter of MICHELLE and BRIANA
BRINSON, Minors.
FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY,
UNPUBLISHED
June 27, 2000
Petitioner-Appellee,
v
No. 214865
Oakland Probate Court
Juvenile Division
LC No. 95-060436-NA
MICHAEL BRINSON,
Respondent-Appellant,
and
JEANIE BRINSON,
Respondent.
Before: Hoekstra, P.J., and Cavanagh and White, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent-appellant appeals by right from the juvenile court order terminating his parental
rights to the minor children under MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i); MSA 27A.3178(598.19b)(3)(c)(i). We
affirm.
The family court did not clearly err in finding that subsection (3)(c)(i) was established by clear
and convincing evidence. MCR 5.974(I); In re Vasquez, 199 Mich App 44, 51; 501 NW2d 231
(1993). Because respondent-appellant failed to demonstrate that termination was clearly not in the
children’s best interests, MCL 712A.19b(5); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(5), the juvenile court did not err
in terminating his parental rights to the children. In re Hall-Smith, 222 Mich App 470, 472-473; 564
NW2d 156 (1997).
