In the Matter of Z.A.K., 189 N.C. App. 354 (2008)
Held:
Reversed and remanded in part
Affirmed in Part
The Court of Appeals rejected the juvenile’s argument that the trial court failed to exercise dispositional discretion. Although the trial judge noted a general policy preference in ordering Level 2 dispositions for juveniles who commit felonies, the record reveals the trial judge considered a variety of factors before designing an appropriate plan to meet the juvenile’s needs and to achieve the objectives of the State, pursuant to G.S. 7B-2500.
