In re Barbara B.
Appellant, Barbara B., appeals from the order of the juvenile court on December 12, 2007 at the conclusion of a recommitment hearing, finding her mentally retarded pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 6500 and committing her to a facility in Florida.[1] Appellant contends the juvenile court erred in committing her without finding that her mental retardation caused her to have serious difficulty in controlling dangerous behavior as required by People v. Bailie (2006) 144 Cal.App.4th 841, 847-850 (Bailie). Respondent argues the court applied the correct legal standard and the evidence shows that appellant had serious difficulty in controlling her dangerous behavior due to her mental retardation. Because the trial court applied the correct legal standard in recommitting appellant, Court affirm the judgment.
