In re T.S.
The juvenile court declared T.S. a ward (Welf. & Inst. Code, 601) after entering a true finding she was a habitual truant ( 601, subd. (b)). The court placed T.S. on probation under the supervision of the probation department and included a probation condition that she be at home "between the hours of 6:00 p.m. and 6:00 a.m. unless in the company of his/her parent, legal guardian, or other adult person having legal care or custody of the minor, subject to modification at the Probation Officer's discretion." T.S. contends the trial court was unauthorized to impose curfew earlier than 10 p.m. At the disposition hearing, the court adopted the probation department recommendations except for a requirement that T.S. provide an essay on the importance of education. Included in the conditions was curfew from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. The court advised T.S. that "[t]he only exceptions are school, religious activities or when you are with your mother. You are to complete 20 hours of community service at a nonprofit organization." T.S. did not object.
The juvenile court order setting T.S.'s curfew is affirmed.
