Can a minor appeal against a finding that a minor has been found not guilty of a charge of sexual assault against her?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. S.G. (In re S.G.), E073827 (Cal. App. 2020):

After minor appealed, upon her request, this court appointed counsel to represent her. Counsel has filed a brief under the authority of People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 and Anders v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 738, setting forth a statement of the case, a summary of the facts and potential arguable issues, and requesting this court to conduct an independent review of the record.

We offered minor an opportunity to file a personal supplemental brief, and she has not done so.
