The question in this juvenile wardship proceeding is whether the juvenile court has discretion to set a maximum term of physical confinement when the court commits the minor to the custody of his parents subject to probationary supervision, rather than to the custody of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, Division of Juvenile Facilities (formerly, the Department of the Youth Authority) (hereafter, the CYA). The answer to that question is â€

Description	A decision regarding juvenile wardship proceeding, whether the juvenile court has discretion to set a maximum term of physical confinement when the court commits the minor to the custody of his parents subject to probationary supervision, rather than to the custody of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, Division of Juvenile Facilities (formerly, the Department of the Youth Authority) (hereafter, the CYA).
