Law.

THE PEOPLE,                                                                         (Super. Ct. No. 65723)

                   Plaintiff and Respondent,

         v.

D.H.,

                   Defendant and Appellant.




         A petition filed on May 2, 2012, alleged that 17-year-old minor D.H., who had
prior sustained juvenile adjudications for possession of burglary tools (Pen. Code, § 466),
resisting a public officer (Pen. Code, § 148, subd. (a)(1)), and false representation to a
peace officer (Pen. Code, § 148.9, subd. (a)) and a prior conviction in adult court for
assault with a firearm (Pen. Code, § 245, subd. (a)(2)), came within Welfare and
Institutions Code section 602 by committing first degree burglary (Pen. Code, § 459),
grand theft of a firearm (Pen. Code, § 487, subd. (d)(2)), possession of a firearm capable

                                                             1
of being concealed by a minor (Pen. Code, § 29610), two counts of possession of
ammunition by a minor (Pen. Code, § 29650), carrying a loaded firearm in public (Pen.
Code, § 25850, subd. (a)), receiving stolen property (Pen. Code, § 496, subd. (a)),
exhibiting a loaded firearm (Pen. Code, § 417, subd. (b)), misdemeanor vandalism (Pen.
Code, § 594, subd. (a)), and resisting a peace officer (Pen. Code, § 148, subd. (a)(1)).
The petition requested a hearing to determine whether the minor was fit to be tried in the
juvenile court pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 707, subdivision (c).
       On May 4, 2012, a fitness hearing was set for May 23, 2012. At the May 23,
2012, fitness hearing, the People moved to amend the petition to request a fitness hearing
pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 707, subdivision (a)(1) and not under
subdivision (c). The juvenile court granted the motion over the minor’s objection and
continued the hearing to May 25, 2012. The minor objected on the grounds of
insufficient notice and insufficient time to prepare for the new allegations.
       At the May 25, 2012, fitness hearing, the juvenile court found that the minor was
not fit for juvenile court and referred the matter to the district attorney for prosecution as
an adult.
       The minor appeals.
       We appointed counsel to represent the minor on appeal. Counsel filed an opening
brief setting forth the facts of the case and, pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d
436, requesting the court to review the record and determine whether there are any
arguable issues on appeal. The minor filed a supplemental brief raising various issues
related to the amendment of the petition and the two-day continuation for the fitness
hearing.
       The minor’s notice of appeal purports to appeal from the May 8, 2012,
“Procedure,” the May 23, 2012, “Oral modification of Petition and trial setting,” and the
May 25, 2012, fitness determination. The notice of appeal states: “Result is not
appealable but Due Process is the issue.”

                                               2
       “[T]he California Supreme Court has repeatedly held that the right to appeal is
wholly statutory.” (Barnes v. Litton Systems, Inc. (1994) 28 Cal.App.4th 681, 683.) The
right to appeal in delinquency proceedings is governed by Welfare and Institutions Code
section 800, which, as pertinent here, provides that “[a] judgment in a proceeding under
[Welfare and Institutions Code] Section 601 or 602” is appealable as a judgment and
“any subsequent order” as an order after judgment. (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 800,
subd. (a).) An order setting a hearing date or modifying a petition is not a judgment or an
order after judgment and therefore is not an appealable order. For the same reason, a
juvenile court’s fitness determination under Welfare and Institutions Code section 707 is
not an appealable order. (People v. Superior Court (Jones) (1998) 18 Cal.4th 667, 678.)
       Since the minor is not contesting an appealable order, we have no jurisdiction to
hear the appeal.
                                     DISPOSITION
       The appeal is dismissed.
