In re Imani T.
In 2013 and 2014, the district attorney filed two petitions against Imani T. (Minor) for unrelated incidents. For each petition, the juvenile court declared Minor a ward of the court under Welfare and Institutions Code section 602[1] and placed her on probation. In 2015, the court found that Minor satisfactorily completed her terms of probation for the offense alleged in the later-filed petition and sealed the records relating to that petition, but decided it did not have discretion to seal the records relating to her prior petition. Minor contends that section 786[2] permitted the court to seal the records pertaining to her prior petition and the court's findings regarding satisfactory completion of probation necessarily also related to her prior petition. She further contends that the juvenile court should have dismissed her prior petition under section 782. The Court conclude the court did not err and affirm.
