In re C.D.
C.D., a minor, appeals from the order of the court, following a disposition hearing, that he be committed to the custody of the Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ). At the preceding contested jurisdictional hearing, the court had sustained a count of robbery and a count of attempted robbery. C.D. seeks reversal of the court’s order sustaining the count of attempted robbery, arguing that his identity as the perpetrator was unsupported by substantial admissible evidence and that insufficient evidence supported a finding that the elements of an attempted robbery were established.
C.D. also seeks reversal of the order committing him to the custody of the DJJ. He contends that there is no evidence that he would benefit from such a commitment or that less restrictive alternatives would be ineffective or inappropriate. He also contends that this order should be vacated due to prosecutorial misconduct. Additionally, C.D. maintains that he was prejudiced by ineffective assistance of counsel because his counsel failed to advocate for a lower maximum term of confinement.
We affirm the orders of the court.
