In re A.B.
Appellant, A.B. (Minor), was accused in a petition filed in the juvenile court of assault with force likely to produce great bodily injury (Pen. Code,[1] § 245, subd. (a)(4)) and battery with serious bodily injury (§ 243, subd. (d)). It was further alleged that the Minor personally inflicted great bodily injury on the victim (§ 12022.7).
Following a contested hearing, the court found all counts and allegations to be true. The Minor was later declared a ward of the juvenile court and placed in the home of her mother.
The Minor appeals contending the case must be remanded because the trial court failed to exercise its discretion to declare the offenses to be felonies or misdemeanors. We find the record does not support the Minor's contention and affirm.
The Minor does not challenge the admissibility or the sufficiency of the evidence to support the true findings on the petition. Accordingly, we will omit any discussion of the facts of the underlying offenses.
