Does a minor have to give her name when she is arrested?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. S.P. (In re S.P.), E062438 (Cal. App. 2015):

Notwithstanding, minor relies on People v. Quiroga (1993) 16 Cal.App.4th 961, to support her position that her failure to give her name does not support the true finding because her refusal occurred prior to any formal arrest.
