In re Richard G.
The minor, Richard G., appeals from the May 3, 2006 order declaring him a ward of the court and placing him in a camp community placement program. (Welf. & Inst. Code, 602.) The juvenile court sustained two of the allegations of a delinquency petition filed March 2, 2006, charging the minor with grand theft and live ammunition possession. (Pen. Code, 487, subd. (c), 12101, subd. (b)(1).) The juvenile court rescinded its August 31, 2005, order, which had placed the minor home on probation following his prior adjudication for firearm and ammunition possession. ( 12101, subds. (a)(1), (b)(1).) The juvenile court declared the grand theft a felony and the ammunition possession a misdemeanor. The juvenile court ordered the maximum confinement to be four years. The minor was given predisposition credit of 70 days. The minor argues the juvenile court: improperly set his confinement time beyond the statutory maximum; failed to exercise its discretion in setting the confinement term; and improperly calculated his predisposition credits. We affirm the wardship order but remand the matter with directions to calculate the precommitment custody credits and the maximum confinement term. The matter is remanded to the juvenile court with directions to: calculate the amount of precommitment custody credits on the record; set forth the calculation for the maximum confinement term based upon the current and prior sustained petitions on the record; and correct the minute order to reflect these calculations. The wardship order is affirmed in all other respects.
