Cases | In re Gabriel M., 45 P.3d 64 (N.M. Ct. App. 2002) | 2018

The juvenile was adjudicated delinquent for intimidation of a witness. On appeal, the juvenile claimed that the intimidation of a witness statute did not apply to him because he could only be adjudicated a delinquent child and could not be convicted of a felony. The appellate court held that the juvenile could be adjudicated for the felony offense of intimidation of a witness as a delinquent offender subject to juvenile sanctions only.
