Petitioner-Appellee,
v
No. 232090
Ingham Circuit Court
Family Division
LC No. 00-039104-NA
KIMMY TYRONE MACKLIN,
Respondent-Appellant,
and
LAVIDA ALLEN,
Respondent.
Before: Sawyer, P.J., and O’Connell and Zahra, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent-appellant appeals as of right from the trial court order terminating his
parental rights to the minor children under MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i), (g), and (j). 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). Furthermore, the evidence did not show that termination of
respondent-appellant’s parental rights was clearly not in the children’s best interests. MCL
712A.19b(5); In re Trejo, 462 Mich 341, 356-357; 612 NW2d 407 (2000). Therefore, the trial
court did not err in terminating respondent-appellant’s parental rights to the children.
