In re G.S.
The juvenile court declared G. S. (the Minor) a ward of the court under Welfare and Institutions Code section 602 after he admitted allegations that he violated Health and Safety Code sections 11360, subdivision (a) and 11357, subdivision (e); Vehicle Code sections 20001, subdivision (a) and 23103; and Penal Code section 242. The juvenile court committed the Minor to 33 days detention in a juvenile facility, with credit for 33 days of time served, and imposed restitution fines and various probation conditions.
The Minor challenges the juvenile courts jurisdictional finding on the ground it was based on evidence obtained as a result of an unlawful traffic stop. He asserts the juvenile court erred by denying his motion to suppress evidence found in his vehicle during a search following the stop. Court conclude the evidence presented at the suppression hearing supported the juvenile courts conclusion that the police officer who stopped the Minors vehicle had at least a reasonable suspicion the Minor had violated Vehicle Code section 22107. Court therefore affirm.
