FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY, UNPUBLISHED February 16, 2001 Petitioner-Appellee, v No. 227482 Wayne Circuit Court Family Division LC No. 90-289849 EDDIE GARRETT, Respondent-Appellant. Before: Whitbeck, P.J., and Murphy and Cooper, JJ. MEMORANDUM. Respondent appeals as of right the family court’s order terminating his parental rights to F.P. pursuant to MCL 712A.19b(3)(a)(ii) and (g); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(a)(ii) and (g). We affirm. After a careful review of the record, we are satisfied that the family court did not err in finding that § 19b(3)(a)(ii) and (g) were established by clear and convincing evidence. MCR 5.974(I); In re Sours, 459 Mich 624, 633; 593 NW2d 520 (1999). Further we find no error in the family court’s finding that termination was in the best interest of the child. MCL 712A.19b(5); MSA 27.3178(598.19b)(5); In re Trejo, 462 Mich 341, 356, 364-365; 612 NW2d 407 (2000). Respondent’s lack of financial support, infrequent visitation, and disregard for his daughter’s living conditions supports the family court’s decision. In re Trejo, supra. Affirmed /s/ William C.
