Case Number: 23STCP02720 Hearing Date: November 20, 2023 Dept: 26
The criminal history assessment that
the Probation Office has run through CLETS reveals that Petitioner has an
active outstanding warrant. The Probation
Officer has noted: "Petitioner has an outstanding bench warrant, Bail UNK,
Case #W052681429 (KS) Date of Warrant 7/10/23."
On September 25, 2023, the Court

warrant and file evidence of such.
However, Petitioner has failed to do so.
Accordingly, the petition is DENIED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
The Court Clerk is to give notice to all parties.
