In re Deandre R. CA2/3
While on probation for vandalism, Deandre R.—a ward of the juvenile court and a Regional Center client with an IQ of 52—failed to maintain satisfactory grades and was ordered suitably placed. Despite his intellectual disability, Deandre went on to graduate from high school. But the court, citing the probation violation, denied Deandre’s motion to seal his records. Because under California law, when a ward of the juvenile court substantially complies with his probation conditions, the court must dismiss the delinquency petition and seal the ward’s records, we reverse.
