STATE OF MICHIGAN COURT OF APPEALS ESTELLE M. BILECKI, UNPUBLISHED December 20, 2002 Plaintiff-Appellee, v No. 237126 Macomb Circuit Court LC Nos. 2001-003221-PH 2001-003222-PH DORIS MILLER and JOHN MILLER, Defendants-Appellants. Before: Owens, P.J., and Murphy and Cavanagh, JJ. MEMORANDUM. Defendants Doris and John Miller appeal as of right the trial court’s grant of personal protection orders (“PPO”) pursuant to MCL 600.2950a. We affirm. This appeal is being decided without oral argument pursuant to MCR 7.214(E). Defendants maintain that the trial court erred in finding that they had engaged in conduct falling within that delineated under MCL 750.411h and thus the trial court should not have granted plaintiff’s request for the PPOs. After thoroughly reviewing the facts presented, we do not find erroneous the trial court’s decision to credit the testimony of plaintiff and her witnesses. The evidence supports a finding that defendants engaged in repeated harassment of plaintiff and her daughter and that this behavior caused plaintiff to suffer emotional distress. We therefore find no abuse of discretion in the trial court’s decision. See Thermatool Corp v Borzym, 227 Mich App 366, 372; 575 NW2d 334 (1998). Affirmed. /s/ Donald S. Owens /s/ William B. Murphy /s/ Mark J. Cavanagh -1-
