In Re Jean M.

—A petition was filed with the Superior Court of Santa Barbara County sitting as a juvenile court seeking to have appellant one Jean M., a minor, declared a ward of the court pursuant to section 602 of the Welfare and Institutions Code. The petition alleged that the appellant had violated sections 11530 and 11556 of the Health and Safety Code in that on March 19, 1970, she (1) possessed marijuana, and (2) was knowingly in or about a place where narcotics were being unlawfully used.

Thereafter appellant moved to suppress certain evidence seized at the time of her arrest. The court refused to suppress the challenged evidence. At the jurisdictional hearing, the court dismissed the allegation of possession of marijuana but found that appellant had violated section 11556 of the Health and Safety Code, and declared her to be a ward of the court. This is an appeal from the referee’s order of disposition pursuant to section 800 of the Welfare and Institutions Code.
