In re Juan A.
Annotate this CaseJuan A. was charged with one count of misdemeanor battery on school property; resisting an officer; disturbing the peace; and felony threatening a public officer or employee. At the time of the adjudication hearing, the prosecution's motion to dismiss the misdemeanor battery count was granted. At the end of the hearing, the court made true findings only on the resisting an officer charge and on the disturbing the peace charge. Juan A. was placed on formal probation, then appealed. On appeal, Juan argued there was not sufficient evidence to support the true findings on either of the remaining counts. After careful examination of the record, the Court of Appeal agreed with the Minor that the prosecution failed to prove the elements of either offense. Thus the court should not have made true findings on those charges.
