In re Thomas B.
The District Attorney of Los Angeles County filed a petition alleging that defendant and appellant Thomas B. (Thomas) came within the provisions of Welfare and Institutions Code section 602 because he committed a second degree robbery (Pen. Code, 211). The juvenile court found the allegation to be true and declared the offense to be a felony. The juvenile court continued Thomas on probation and ordered him suitably placed. The juvenile court set the maximum period of physical confinement at five years and awarded Thomas 19 days of predisposition custody credit.
On appeal, Thomas contends that there is insufficient evidence to support the juvenile courts finding that he committed a second degree robbery and that the juvenile court erred in awarding him 19 days of predisposition custody credit rather than 27 days. Court affirm the juvenile courts finding that Thomas committed a second degree robbery and direct the juvenile court to amend its wardship order to reflect 27 days of predisposition custody credit.
