STATE OF MICHIGAN
COURT OF APPEALS
In the Matter of A.Y.H. and M.L.H., Minors.
FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY,
UNPUBLISHED
September 17, 2002
Petitioner-Appellee,
v
No. 240058
Emmet Circuit Court
Family Division
LC No. 92-003294-NA
SHARON DIPZINSKI,
Respondent-Appellant
and
BRYAN HILL
Respondent.
Before: Whitbeck, C.J. and Sawyer and Kelly, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
Respondent appeals as of right the trial court’s order terminating her parental rights to her
children pursuant to MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i), (g) and (j).1 We affirm.
Respondent does not challenge the finding of the existence of statutory grounds for
termination but argues instead that the trial court erred in failing to find that termination was not
in the children’s best interests. After thoroughly reviewing the record, including the trial court’s
previous efforts in attempting to provide the children with a normal life while maintaining their
contact with respondent, we do not find the trial court’s decision clearly erroneous. Thus, the
trial court did not err in terminating respondent’s parental rights to the children. MCL
