Nos. 20160355 & 20160356

Per Curiam.

[¶1] The mother, R.U., appeals from a juvenile court judgment terminating her parental rights.  The juvenile court found the children are deprived, the conditions and causes of the deprivation are likely to continue, the children are suffering or will probably suffer serious harm, and the children have been in foster care for at least 450 out of the previous 660 nights.  The mother argues there was not clear and convincing evidence the deprivation was likely to continue.  We conclude the court’s findings are not clearly erroneous and the court made alternate findings sufficient to terminate parental rights.   See N.D.C.C. § 27-20-44(1)(c).  We summarily affirm under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(2) and (7); In re R.L.-P. , 2014 ND 28, ¶¶ 19-23, 842 N.W.2d 889.
