FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY,
UNPUBLISHED
June 4, 2002
Petitioner-Appellee,
v
No. 236297
Washtenaw Circuit Court
Family Division
LC No. 98-024727-NA
MICHELLE BAKER,
Respondent-Appellant,
and
TIMOTHY BAKER, SR.,
Respondent.
Before: Fitzgerald, P.J., and Holbrook, Jr., and Doctoroff, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent-appellant appeals as of right from the trial court order terminating her
parental rights to the minor children under MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i) and (g). We affirm. This
case is being decided without oral argument pursuant to MCR 7.214(E).
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’s parental rights was clearly not in the children’s best interests. MCL 712A.19b(5);
In re Trejo Minors, 462 Mich 341, 356-357; 612 NW2d 407 (2000). In sum, the trial court did
not err in terminating respondent’s parental rights to the children.
