In re Brian P.
While on juvenile probation for first degree burglary and misdemeanor possession of a deadly weapon in exchange for dismissal of two allegations involving methamphetamine (transportation and possession) in another juvenile petition. The juvenile court continued the minor on probation and, as one term of probation, ordered him committed to the South Lake Tahoe Challenge Program for 223 days. The minor appeals. Appellant contends (1) the juvenile court erroneously calculated his maximum period of confinement without considering whether to impose less than the maximum as provided by section 731, subdivision (b) and (2) one of the written terms of probation fails to reflect the oral pronouncement of the juvenile court. Court agreed that the written term of probation requires correction to reflect the court’s oral pronouncement but concluded that the juvenile court properly specified the minor’s maximum period of confinement.
