In re Brandon L.
A minor and ward of the Sonoma County Juvenile Court admitted charges of battery with serious bodily injury (Pen. Code, § 243, subd. (d)) and witness intimidation. (Pen. Code, § 136.1, subd. (a)(1)). In another petition, the minor admitted a charge of conspiracy to commit assault with a deadly weapon. (Pen. Code, §§ 182, 245, subd. (a)(1).) On appeal, the minor contends that (1) the court abused its discretion in committing him to CYA; (2) remand is required for the court to exercise its discretion whether to impose less than the maximum period of confinement; and (3) the court miscalculated his maximum period of confinement. Court reject the minor's first contention, but agree with him as to the second and third.
