IN THE INTEREST OF: M.R.B., A MINOR APPEAL OF: M.R.B., A MINOR
NON-PRECEDENTIAL DECISION - SEE SUPERIOR COURT I.O.P. 65.37
Appeal from the Dispositional Order October 22, 2014 in the Court of Common Pleas of Dauphin County
Juvenile Division at No.: CP-22-JV-0000053-2014
BEFORE: FORD ELLIOTT, P.J.E., WECHT, J., and PLATT, J. MEMORANDUM BY PLATT, J.:
Retired Senior Judge assigned to the Superior Court.
Appellant, M.R.B., a minor, appeals from the dispositional order following the juvenile court's adjudication of delinquency following her counseled admission to five counts each of forgery, theft by deception, receiving stolen property, criminal conspiracy, and bad checks. Appellant challenges the restitution award. We affirm on the basis of the juvenile court's January 23, 2015 opinion.
18 Pa.C.S.A. §§ 4101(a)(2), 3922(a)(1), 3925(a), 903(c), and 4105(a)(1), respectively.
In its January 23, 2015 opinion, the juvenile court fully and correctly sets forth the relevant facts and procedural history of this case. ( See Juvenile Court Opinion, 1/23/15, at 1-2). Therefore, we have no reason to restate them here.
Appellant raises the following issues for our review:
I. Whether the trial court abused its discretion by misapplying the law when it awarded restitution to Ms. Pamela Weinberg as a third party?(Appellant's Brief, at 5).
II. Whether the trial court abused its discretion by awarding excessive restitution in the amount of [$1,215.21]?
After a thorough review of the record, the briefs of the parties, the applicable law, and the well-reasoned opinion of the juvenile court, we conclude that there is no merit to Appellant's issues. The juvenile court properly disposed of all of the questions presented. ( See Juvenile Ct. Op., at 3-5) (finding: (1) juvenile court properly exercised its discretion in award of joint and several restitution; and (2) amount of restitution award appropriate). Accordingly, we affirm on the basis of the juvenile court's January 23, 2015 opinion.
Order affirmed. Judgment Entered. /s/_________
