THE PEOPLE, (Super. Ct. No. J244872) Plaintiff and Respondent

v.

R.R.,

Defendant and Appellant,

APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of San Diego County, Richard R. Monroy, Judge. Affirmed. Michaela Dalton, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant. No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent. After denying R.R.’s motion for an order continuing the proceedings and placing him on informal supervision pursuant to Welfare and

Institutions Code1 sections 654 and 654.2, the juvenile court held a contested hearing and found true the allegation that R.R. attempted to commit robbery. It declared R.R. a ward of the court and ordered that he be placed under probation department supervision and maintained in the home. R.R.’s court-appointed counsel filed a brief raising no issues but seeking our independent review of the record pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 (Wende) and Anders v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 738 (Anders). We find no arguable issues and affirm. FACTUAL BACKGROUND In February 2023, O.L. was walking home with his girlfriend M.R. While passing a middle school, the couple noticed that a group of four boys, including R.R., walked behind them and then passed them. After the couple passed the group of boys, the group again started following the couple. The couple crossed the street several times as the group followed them. Ultimately, as the couple walked past the group, someone grabbed O.L. from behind by his backpack. He lost his balance but M.R. pulled him back before he fell. The boy who grabbed O.L. laughed and said, “ ‘What’s up?’ ” R.R. said, “ “Give me all your shit.’ ” O.L. saw R.R. unzip his fanny pack and reach inside for something but did not see what it was. This action scared O.L. M.R. also saw R.R. open his fanny pack to display the handle of a firearm before saying, “ ‘Give me your f’ing stuff.’ ” This terrified her. When O.L. took a step to advance, the boys started laughing, quickly backed down, and ran across the street. O.L. recognized R.R. from the neighborhood. After verifying R.R.’s identity, he reported the incident to the middle school.
