In re I.P. CA3
Following a contested hearing, the juvenile court sustained a delinquency petition brought pursuant to Welfare & Institutions Code section 602, finding that the minor I.P. committed robbery against a victim over the age of 65. The juvenile court declared the minor a ward of the court and placed him on probation in his mother’s custody, subject to 141 days in juvenile hall with 141 days of predisposition credit. The juvenile court did not set a maximum term of confinement.
The minor now contends (1) the juvenile court erred in failing to set a maximum term of confinement, (2) it should have awarded two more days of predisposition credit, and (3) the dispositional order must be corrected because the minor did not plead to the offense. We conclude the trial court was not required to set a maximum term of confinement because the minor was not removed from parental custody.
