In re A.M.
Pollak, J. A.M. appeals from the dispositional order of the juvenile court in these delinquency proceedings, challenging both the jurisdictional order and the terms of the disposition. He argues that statements he made to police while in custody were not voluntary and were erroneously admitted in evidence, and that the court improperly limited the scope of its review of police officer personnel records under Pitchess v. Superior Court (1984) 11 Cal.3d 531 (Pitchess). Court conclude that the trial court did not err in admitting the statements or in its review of the officers records, but agree with A.M. that the court should not have stated a maximum term of confinement. Court therefore shall remand the case for correction of the record.
