People v. Yvonne J.

Respondent-appellant Yvonne J. is the birth mother of two minors, seven-year-old A.J., who was born in July 1987, and five-year-old Y.J., who was born in June 1989. On appeal, respondent contends that the trial court’s termination of her parental rights, in November 1993, based on her unfitness due to mental illness violated her due process rights and discriminated against her as a mentally impaired person. Respondent also challenges the propriety of the trial court’s denial of her motion to stay adoption proceedings pending appeal.

We affirm the trial court’s orders.
