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UNPUBLISHED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
