T.H. v. State of Indiana
18S-JV-80
Juvenile. Affirms T.H.’s adjudication as a delinquent but remands to reduce the trial court’s criminal mischief finding from a Class A to a Class B misdemeanor. The state failed to produce sufficient evidence to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that his actions resulted in at least $750 in loss. Remands to the trial court to modify its records to show T.H. committed an act that would be criminal mischief as a Class B misdemeanor.
