In re Nicholas H. CA1/4
After entering a no contest plea to one count of lewd acts on a child under the age of 14 (Pen. Code, § 288, subd. (a)) and one count of misdemeanor assault (§ 245, subd. (a)(4)), the trial court committed the minor to the Department of Juvenile Justice (DJJ) for a maximum term of eight years, four months. Minor filed the instant appeal claiming that his no contest plea was entered without being advised of the possibility of DJJ commitment and of the mandatory lifetime sex offender registration following a DJJ commitment for a section 288 offense. (§ 290.008, subd. (c).).
