In re Carl N.
Carl N., a ward of the juvenile court, who was born in 1988 and has a long history of juvenile delinquency (including vandalism, gang activity, drug abuse, a felony assault, and multiple violations of probation) and repeated failure to benefit from less restrictive commitments, appeals an order committing him to the California Youth Authority (CYA)[1]after he admitted he had again violated probation. Carl contends the court abused its discretion because there was no evidence demonstrating that he would likely benefit from a CYA commitment or that the commitment would meet his reformatory, educational, discipline or treatment needs or that the public would be safer. Court affirm the CYA commitment.
