In re A.M.
On February 24, 2009, the Riverside County District Attorneys Office filed a petition alleging that minor A.M. came within the provisions of Welfare and Institutions Code section 602. The petition alleged that minor willfully and unlawfully (1) possessed a firearm under Penal Code section 12101, subdivision (a), a felony (count 1); possessed a firearm on the grounds of a public school without the permission of proper school authorities under Penal Code section 626.9, subdivision (b), a felony (count 2); and (3) brought and possessed a gun and sharpened screwdriver upon the grounds of a public school under Penal Code section 626.10, subdivision (a), a felony (count 3). The petition further alleged that count 1 was committed for the benefit of a criminal street gang under Penal Code section 186.22, subdivision (b).
On April 10, 2009, following a contested jurisdictional hearing, the juvenile court found true all three counts in the petition, but did not find true the gang allegation.
