M.M., a child; M.M., father; Respondents and S.M., mother, Respondent and Appellant No. 20200339 Appeal from the Juvenile Court of Cass County, East Central Judicial District, the Honorable Scott A. Griffeth, Judicial Referee. AFFIRMED. Per Curiam. Diane K. Davies-Luger, Assistant State’s Attorney, Fargo, ND, for petitioner and appellee; submitted on brief. Daniel E. Gast, Fargo, ND, for respondent and appellant; submitted on brief. Interest of M.M., R.M., S.M., E.M., and K.M. Nos. 20200335-20200339 Per Curiam. [¶1] S.M., the mother, appeals from a juvenile court order terminating her parental rights to M.M., R.M., S.M., E.M., and K.M. On appeal, S.M. argues the State presented insufficient evidence to support termination of her parental rights. We conclude the State’s evidence was sufficient to prove the children are deprived; the conditions and causes of the deprivation are likely to continue; and the children are suffering, or will in the future probably suffer, serious physical, mental, moral, or emotional harm as required for the termination of parental rights under N.D.C.C. § 27-20-44(1)(c). The juvenile court’s findings are supported by clear and convincing evidence, are not clearly erroneous, and support the termination of S.M.’s parental rights. We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2). [¶2] Jon J. Jensen, C.J. Gerald W. VandeWalle Daniel J. Crothers Lisa Fair McEvers Jerod E. Tufte 1
