In re A.H.
A.H. appeals an order of the juvenile court committing him to the California Youth Authority (CYA)[1]for a maximum term of six years six months based on offenses found true in multiple sustained juvenile wardship petitions. (Welf. & Inst. Code, 602, 777.) His most recent offenses include assault by means of force likely to produce great bodily injury (Pen. Code[2], 245, subd. (a)(1)), battery on school, park or hospital property ( 243.2, subd. (a)), and escape from a juvenile facility (Welf. & Inst. Code, 871, subd. (a)). His past offenses include battery and grand theft of person. ( 487, subd. (c).) He contends the court abused its discretion in committing him to CYA, and that the commitment violates his federal due process rights. Court affirm.
