In re Anthony C.
The juvenile court made true findings that Anthony C. committed robbery, burglary, and petty theft, and possessed alcohol in a public place. (Pen. Code, 211, 459, 484; Bus. & Prof. Code, 25662, subd. (a).) The court committed Anthony to Camp Barrett for a period not to exceed 270 days.
On appeal, Anthony concedes substantial evidence supports the court's findings on all four counts. He contends that we must nonetheless reverse the judgment because the court's oral explanation of its reasoning does not logically support the court's factual conclusions. We reject this contention. Viewing the court's comments in context, the court's oral explanation is consistent with its factual and legal determinations. Anthony also contends the court's finding on the petty theft count must be reversed because petty theft is a lesser included offense of the robbery count. As the Attorney General concedes, this argument is correct. Accordingly, Court reverse the judgment on the petty theft count. Court affirm the judgment on all other counts.
