In re J.M. CA4/3
A court found true allegations minor J.M. dissuaded a witness and committed a battery. The court granted probation and ordered minor to serve 180 less 24 days in custody.
Minor argues the court failed to orally pronounce a maximum term of confinement and the restitution fine amount, and imposed an overly broad curfew condition. The Attorney General concedes these points, and we agree.
Minor also asserts the court violated Penal Code section 654 (section 654) by imposing sentence on counts 1 and 2, but we find this contention to be meritless.
Therefore, we will vacate the sentence and remand the matter with directions to conduct a further sentencing hearing, but otherwise affirm the conviction.
