P. v. Estrada
Defendant pled no contest to the crime of unlawful driving or taking of a vehicle. (Veh. Code, 10851, subd. (a).) Defendant was granted three years probation, with the condition she serve 180 days in custody. Defendant essentially contends that probation term No. 18, which requires her to cooperate during field interrogations, infringes on her Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination and, therefore, must be narrowly drawn. Defendant requests the probation condition be modified to include a provision indicating that she retains her Fifth Amendment privilege. In addition, defendant essentially contends that probation term No. 18 is invalid under People v. Lent (1975) 15 Cal.3d 481, 486 (Lent), superseded on another ground by Proposition 8 as stated by People v. Wheeler (1992) 4 Cal.4th 284, 290-295, because it is not related to the crime for which she was convicted or to future criminality.
