In re D.J.
D.J. (appellant), a minor, appeals from the order declaring him a ward of the juvenile court under Welfare & Institutions Code section 602.[1] As part of an agreement, appellant waived his rights and admitted the allegation against him. Appellant was placed at home on probation. The court set the maximum term of confinement at five years and awarded appellant 19 days predisposition credit. Appellant argues that because he was placed at home on probation, the juvenile court erred by setting a maximum term of physical confinement.
We agree with appellant, and order the maximum term of confinement stricken from the court's dispositional order.
