In re Hugo A. CA2/1
Hugo A. (Hugo) appeals from the juvenile court’s order declaring him to be a ward of the court pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 602. The court entered its order following a finding that Hugo committed felony vandalism and was in possession of aerosol paint with intent to deface. On appeal, Hugo argues that the order must be reversed because the juvenile court violated (1) his right to a speedy trial when it granted the People a five-day continuance over his objection due to the unavailability of their damages expert and (2) his right of confrontation when it allowed the People’s damages expert to rely on testimonial hearsay for his opinion. We disagree with both contentions and, accordingly, affirm.
