Following a jurisdiction hearing, the juvenile court found true an allegation that appellant Adrian C., a minor, committed misdemeanor battery (Pen. Code, § 242). Following the subsequent disposition hearing, the court placed appellant under the care, custody, control and supervision of the probation officer; furloughed appellant to the home of appellant's mother on pre-placement status; and declared appellant's maximum period of physical confinement (MPPC) to be eight months, consisting of two months for the instant offense and six months for an offense of which appellant was adjudicated in a previous wardship proceeding.
On appeal, appellant contends the court erred in declaring an MPPC. Alternatively, he contends the court erroneously failed to exercise its discretion in setting the MPPC. We will affirm.
