In re N.C. CA1/3
On June 8, 2018, the Contra Costa County District Attorney filed a Welfare and Institutions Code section 602 petition alleging that the 16-year-old appellant had committed acts constituting the felony offense of assault with force likely to produce great bodily injury against his father on June 6, 2018 (Pen. Code, § 245, subd. (a)(4)) (count one); the misdemeanor offense of battery against his mother on May 12, 2018 (Pen. Code, §§ 242; 243, subd. (a)) (count two); and the misdemeanor offense of resisting, obstructing, or delaying a peace officer on May 11, 2018 (Pen. Code, § 148, subd. (a)(1)) (count three). The offenses stemmed from incidents of physical disputes between appellant and his parents that arose from appellant’s failure to follow home rules and his “addiction” to playing video games. During a probation department interview, appellant admitted playing video games three to four hours per day on weekdays and six to eight hours per day on weekends.
