In Re Mark T.
Michigan Court of Appeals
1Opinion of the CourtLevin, J.
This appeal from an order granting a writ of habeas corpus presents the question whether the circuit court has the power to award custody of an illegitimate child to the child’s father after a probate court has entered a termination order in connection with the proposed adoption of the child following the child’s release for adoption by the mother to a licensed child placement agency. A termination order is an order entered pursuant to CLS 1961, §710:6 (Stat Ann 1962 Rev §27.3178 [546]) after a petition for adoption has been filed, investigated and has received the required consent.
