STATE OF MICHIGAN COURT OF APPEALS In the Matter of V.M.M., D.M.M., A.D.M., M.E.M., and J.L.B., Minors. FAMILY INDEPENDENCE AGENCY, UNPUBLISHED December 20, 2002 Petitioner-Appellee, v No. 239874 Wayne Circuit Court Family Division LC No. 00-387177 DELORES SHIRLEY MCDANIEL, Respondent-Appellant, and AL-SHERRE FOREST, WARDELL THOMAS, and JERRY BURROUGHS, Respondents. Before: Owens, P.J., and Murphy and Cavanagh, JJ. MEMORANDUM. Respondent-appellant appeals as of right from the circuit court order terminating her parental rights to the minor children under MCL 712A.19b(3)(c)(i), (g), and (j). We affirm. This appeal is being decided without oral argument pursuant to MCR 7.214(E). The circuit court did not clearly err in finding that the statutory grounds for termination were established by clear and convincing evidence. See MCR 5.974(I); In re Miller, 433 Mich 331, 337; 445 NW2d 161 (1989). Further, the evidence did not show that termination of respondent-appellant’s parental rights was clearly not in the children’s best interests. See MCL -1- 712A.19b(5); In re Trejo, 462 Mich 341, 356-357; 612 NW2d 407 (2000). Thus, the circuit court did not err in terminating respondent-appellant’s parental rights to the children. Affirmed. /s/ Donald S. Owens /s/ William B. Murphy /s/ Mark J. Cavanagh -2-
