1Opinion of the Court

Bernes, Judge.

D. M., a 16-year-old male, was charged in the juvenile court with multiple drug-related crimes in addition to several serious traffic offenses. Following a hearing, the juvenile court transferred D. M.’s case to the superior court so that he could be treated as an adult offender. D. M. appeals from the transfer order,1 contending that the juvenile court erred by finding that he was not amenable to treatment in the juvenile system and that the interests of D. M. and the community required the transfer of jurisdiction to the superior court. We disagree and affirm.
