TO: Birthparents of a female infant born on July 24, 2024, and surrendered pursuant to MCL 712.1 on July 24, 2024, to Corewell Health Ludington Hospital in Ludington, Michigan.

TAKE NOTICE: By surrendering your newborn, you are releasing your newborn to a child placing agency to be placed for adoption.  The surrendering parent has 28 days from the date of surrender which occurred on July 24, 2024, to petition the court to regain custody of the child.  The non-surrendering parent has 28 days from the date of the notice of this publication to petition the court to regain custody of the child. After the 28 days have lapsed, a court hearing will be held to accept the release of parental rights made under the Safe Delivery of Newborns Act. The law provides that you should be notified of this hearing by publication only.  You will not receive personal service. Failure to attend the hearing will constitute a denial of interest in custody of the minor, a waiver of notice of all subsequent hearings, and YOUR PARENTAL RIGHTS WILL BE TERMINATED. The birth parents may contact Marina Smith from Bethany Christian Services at 269.270.7671 or Tanya Spitzley from Barry County Trial Court-Family Division at 269.945.1400 ext. 1067.
