In re C.W. CA1/4
Defendant C.W. filed a petition requesting that the juvenile court designate four felony second degree commercial burglary adjudications (Pen. Code, §§ 459, 460, subd. (b)) as misdemeanor shoplifting adjudications (§ 459.5) pursuant to section 1170.18, the resentencing provision of Proposition 47. In her petition, C.W. also asked the court to order that a DNA sample she provided in connection with her adjudications be expunged from the state’s DNA databank. The court reduced C.W.’s felony adjudications to misdemeanors but declined to order expungement of her DNA from the state databank. On appeal, C.W. challenges the latter ruling, contending that section 1170.18 requires expungement, and that the court’s order denying expungement deprives her of equal protection. We affirm.
