In re Alex R.
The court adjudged appellant, Alex R., a ward of the court (Welf. & Inst. Code, 602) after it sustained allegations charging him with felony arson (Pen. Code, 451, subd. (c)) and unlawful possession of a cigarette lighter (Pen. Code, 308, subd. (b)), an infraction. On September 28, 2006, the court ordered Alex to serve 6 days in juvenile hall and 31 days on house arrest. On appeal, Alex contends the court erred in: 1) designating his possession of drug paraphernalia offense a misdemeanor rather than an infraction; 2) imposing a 10 percent administrative fee on its restitution order; and 3) admitting certain hearsay statements. Court find merit to Alexs first two contentions and direct the court to correct the judgment accordingly. In all other respects Court affirm.
