In re Amber M.
In November 2005 the Orange County Superior Court adjudged Amber M. a ward under Welfare and Institutions Code section 602 after sustaining a true finding for misdemeanor battery. After a series of transfers between Orange County Superior Court and San Diego Superior Court, in August 2007, Amber began living with her mother again in Oceanside and her case was returned to San Diego Superior Court. San Diego Superior Court set the case for detention hearing on August 24, 2007. When Amber did not appear for the hearing, the court issued a bench warrant. Police arrested Amber on the warrant on September 12. The order of September 13, 2007, detaining Amber pending the September 27 disposition hearing is reversed, and the matter remanded to superior court for further proceedings as appropriate.
