In re Trenton V.
The Solano County District Attorney filed a petition under Welfare and Institutions Code section 602 alleging appellant Trenton V. made a criminal threat and committed battery, and further alleged the criminal threat amounted to a serious felony. (Pen. Code,[1] § 1192.7, subd. (c).) After a contested jurisdiction hearing, the juvenile court dismissed the battery allegations, but sustained allegations of a criminal threat and deemed that count a felony. (§ 422, subd. (a).) Following the disposition hearing, the juvenile court adjudged appellant a ward of the court. He was placed on probation for a maximum of three years, under the custody of his parents with the option of living independently (he was 18 at the time), according to the discretion of the probation officer. On appeal, the issue is whether there was sufficient evidence to sustain the allegations of a criminal threat. We affirm the order.
