P. v. Trevino
Carlos Trevino (Trevino) appeals from a judgment that granted a petition for civil commitment under the Sexually Violent Predator Act (SVPA), Welfare and Institutions Code, sections 6600 et seq.[1] He contends that the superior court erred in not granting one or more of his motions to dismiss the petition. For example, he contends that the petition should have been dismissed because the psychiatric evaluations used to support the petition are invalid and thus reversal is required. Trevino also contends that the recent amendments to the SVPA are unconstitutional. For the following reasons, Court affirm the judgment in its entirety.
