No. 236841
Berrien Circuit Court

LC No. 2000-000044-NA
RUDELL E. JOHNSON,
Respondent-Appellant,
and
TAMMY HULLINGER JOHNSON, OTTO
COCHRAN and PHILLIP TORBERT,
Respondents.
Before: Fitzgerald, P.J., and Holbrook, Jr., and Doctoroff, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent-appellant appeals as of right the trial court order terminating his parental
rights to the minor children under MCL 712A.19b(3)(a)(ii), (b), (g), (h), (j) and (k). 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 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, 462 Mich 341, 356-357; 612 NW2d 407 (2000). The trial court did
not err in terminating respondent-appellant’s rights to the children.
Affirmed.
/s/ E. Thomas Fitzgerald
/s/ Donald E. Holbrook, Jr.
/s/ Martin M. Doctoroff
