Cecil L., Jr., appeals from the nonfinal circuit court order waiving juvenile court jurisdiction under Wis. Stat. sec. 938.18. He argues that the court’s decision to waive juvenile jurisdiction was “unsupported by the record” because, he contends, “no facts were offered to support a finding that the serious juvenile offender program was inadequate for [his] treatment and the protection of the public.” He also argues that the court improperly based its decision “on its belief that his punishment should be more severe than the maximum possible term of an order of supervision in the juvenile justice system.”

This court disagrees and, therefore, affirms.

This opinion will not be published.

Dist I, Milwaukee County, Foley, J., Schudson, J.

Attorneys:

For Appellant: Chris L. Hartley, Milwaukee
