JUSTICE KINSER,
with whom JUSTICE LACY joins, concurring.
I concur in the result reached by the majority in this case. However, I write separately to reiterate my belief that the notice requirement at issue is not a prerequisite for the juvenile court’s exercise of its subject matter jurisdiction. David Moore v. Commonwealth, 259 Va. 431, 527 S.E.2d 406 (2000) (this day decided) (Kinser, J., dissenting); see also Turner v. Commonwealth, 216 Va. 666, 667, 222 S.E.2d 517, 518 (1976) (holding that mandatory requirement of written notice was not jurisdictional).
