Syllabus

DELINQUENCY – DUE-PROCESS RIGHTS – SUFFICIENCY AND WEIGHT OF THE EVIDENCE – AGGRAVATED ROBBERY – OPERABILITY OF A FIREARM: Where the magistrate did not rely on juvenile's invocation of his right to remain silent as substantive evidence of guilt that he possessed an operable firearm, juvenile was not adjudicated delinquent in violation of his due-process rights. The state presented sufficient evidence that juvenile possessed an operable firearm where juvenile entered a store, pointed a weapon at the victim and demanded money, and the victim testified that he believed the weapon to be real.
