In re James C.
Appellant James C. was declared to be a ward of the juvenile court under Welfare and Institutions Code section 602 after the court sustained allegations that he committed an attempted second degree robbery. (Pen. Code, 664/211, 212.5, subd. (c).) The court ordered placement in a court-approved home or institution for a maximum term of three years. (See Welf. & Inst. Code, 726, subd. (c).) Although appellant originally challenged his maximum term of confinement as greater than that permitted for attempted second degree robbery, he has withdrawn that argument in his reply brief and concedes the three-year maximum term was appropriately set. The concession appears appropriate, although not for the reason contemplated by the parties.
The case is remanded to the juvenile court for a calculation of predisposition custody credits. The judgment is otherwise affirmed.
