In re D.T.
D.T., a minor, appeals from an order declaring him a ward of the juvenile court pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 602[1]by reason of his having committed grand theft auto (Pen. Code, 487, subd. (d)(1)) and theft or unauthorized driving of a vehicle (Veh. Code, 10851, subd.(a)). The grand theft auto count was dismissed pursuant to Penal Code section 654. The juvenile court ordered appellant placed in the Camp Community Placement Program and set a maximum term of confinement of three years eight months. Appellant contends that the juvenile court failed to exercise its discretion, as required by section 702, to determine whether the adjudicated allegation was a felony or misdemeanor, requiring remand for the juvenile court to make that determination.
