In re A.J. CA1/4
Minor defendant A.J. appeals from an order by the Contra Costa County Juvenile Court denying her petition to reclassify a felony violation of Vehicle Code section 10851, subdivision (a), as a misdemeanor pursuant to Proposition 47. She contends that a violation of Vehicle Code section 10851 involving the theft of a vehicle falls within Proposition 47, that she met her burden to show the value of the car involved in the present case was $950 or less, and that the trial court used an incorrect formula to determine the fair market value of the car at the time of her offense. In its recent decision in People v. Page (Nov. 30, 2017, S230793) ___ Cal.5th ___ [2017 D.A.R. 11358, 11359; 2017 Cal. Lexis 8926, *3; 2017 WL 5895782, *1] (Page), our Supreme Court held a felony violation of Vehicle Code section 10851 is eligible for resentencing under Proposition 47 if the conviction is based on the theft of a vehicle worth less than $950.
