IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT
DIVISION SIX
In re D.R., a Person Coming 2d Juv. No. B350556
Under the Juvenile Court Law. Super. Ct. No. EL1293B
(Los Angeles County)
THE PEOPLE,
Plaintiff and Respondent,
v.
D.R.,
Defendant and Appellant.
D.R. appeals after the juvenile court found he committed
assault with a deadly weapon (Pen. Code, § 245, subd. (a)(1)) with
a great bodily injury enhancement (id., § 12022.7, subd. (a)) and
declared him a ward of the court pursuant to Welfare and
Institutions Code section 602.
In February 2025, A.S. was attending a protest in front of
Los Angeles City Hall. A.S. knew appellant from “past beef.”
A.S. ran toward appellant because he wanted to fight him. A.S.
pushed the person standing next to appellant to the ground.
After pushing that person, A.S. approached appellant.
Appellant took out a knife, and A.S. started running. Appellant
swung at A.S. with the knife. A.S. was attacked by multiple
other people. He extricated himself and ran. A.S. felt a burning
sensation on his back, and people told him he was bleeding.
An ambulance arrived and took A.S. to the hospital. One of
A.S.’s kidneys was damaged and surgically removed. He also
sustained intestinal damage.
The court dismissed the attempted murder count. It found
true the assault with a deadly weapon count and the great bodily
injury enhancement. Appellant admitted a battery with serious
bodily injury (Pen. Code, § 243, subd. (d)) on a separate petition.
The court placed appellant in the care, custody, and control
of probation for a camp term of five to seven months. The court
set the maximum confinement time at eight years but later
amended the number to seven years following a letter from
appellate counsel.
We appointed counsel to represent appellant in this appeal.
After examination of the record, counsel filed an opening brief
raising no issues. On June 5, 2026, we sent a letter advising
appellant that he had 30 days to submit any grounds for appeal,
contentions, or arguments he wished us to consider. We have
received no such submission from appellant.
We have reviewed the entire record and are satisfied that
counsel has fully complied with their responsibilities and that no
arguable issue exists. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436,
441.) The judgment is affirmed.
