In re Z.D. CA5
After a Welfare and Institutions Code section 602 petition was filed, Z.D. admitted one count of second degree robbery (Pen. Code, § 211) and a Penal Code section 12022.5, subdivision (a) weapon enhancement. At disposition, the juvenile court set a maximum period of confinement at 15 years and two months. Z.D. appeals, contending the juvenile court did not understand it had discretion to set a maximum period of confinement that is less than the maximum to which an adult offender could be sentenced. We agree. The matter will be remanded for the juvenile court to exercise its discretion.
