OPINION

BEDSWORTH, Acting P.J.

Respondents Humberto and Michael Alvarado were charged in Orange County Superior Court with one count of receiving stolen property.1 The trial court dismissed the charge for improper venue and ordered that it be refiled in Los Angeles County. However, because the property was stolen in Orange County, venue lies in Orange County. We therefore reverse the order to dismiss.
