In re Alex R.
Following a contested jurisdiction hearing, the juvenile court found true allegations set forth in a juvenile wardship petition that appellant Alex R. committed (1) first degree burglary, a serious and violent felony (Pen. Code, §§ 459, 1192.7, subd. (c), 667.5, subd. (c))[1] for the benefit of a criminal street gang (§ 186.22, subd. (b)(1)) (count 1), (2) receiving stolen property (§ 496, subd. (a)) for the benefit of a criminal street gang (§ 186.22, subd. (b)(1)) (count 2), (3) participation in a criminal street gang, a serious felony (§§ 186.22, subd. (a), 1192.7, subd. (c)) (count 3), and (4) grand theft of a firearm (§ 487, subd. (d)(2)) (count 4).[2] The court granted Alex’s motion to dismiss five other counts alleged in the petition pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 701.1. Following the subsequent disposition hearing, the court continued Alex as a ward of the juvenile court and ordered him to serve not less than 180 days in juvenile hall. The court calculated Alex’s maximum term of confinement as 18 years and four months.
