In re Geovanny D.
Following a contested jurisdiction hearing, the Sacramento County Juvenile Court found that minor was a person described within the meaning of Welfare and Institutions Code section 602 in that he drove under the influence of alcohol causing bodily injury to another, a misdemeanor; drove with a .08 percent or more blood-alcohol level, a misdemeanor; and violated the basic speed law, an infraction. Minor was placed on probation for six months and committed to the care and custody of his parents.
On appeal, the minor contends (1) his suppression motion should have been granted because his arrest was not supported by probable cause, and (2) counts one and two are not supported by sufficient evidence that he was under the influence and his blood-alcohol level exceeded .08 percent. Court affirmed the judgment.
