July 11, 2002 2002 UT App 240 -----

Original Proceeding in this Court

Attorneys:
Gregory Saunders, St. George, for Petitioner
Brent M. Johnson, Salt Lake City, for Respondent -----

Before Judges Davis, Greenwood, and Orme.

PER CURIAM:

Petitioner seeks extraordinary relief alleging that he has been wrongfully incarcerated beyond thirty days on a contempt charge, and that in so ordering Petitioner's continued incarceration, Respondent has exceeded his judicial authority. However, Petitioner fails to cite any legal authority in support of his argument. Furthermore, the juvenile court has acted appropriately under rule 9 of the Utah Rules of Juvenile Procedure and Utah Code Ann. § 78-3a-114 in conducting the inquiry and making the required findings to continue to hold Petitioner pending resolution of the allegations. Petitioner has failed to present any evidence that the juvenile court has acted improperly in this case.

Accordingly, the Petition for Extraordinary Relief is denied.
