P. v. Langner CA4/1
The superior court granted Chelsea Langner probation for a term of three years after she pleaded guilty to one count of sexual penetration of a minor with a foreign object (Pen. Code, §289, subd. (h)). Langner argues the superior court abused its discretion by imposing certain probation conditions that prohibit legal conduct that is not reasonably related to the offense or Langner's future criminality under the test established by People v. Lent (1975) 15 Cal.3d 481 (Lent). These conditions fall into three main categories: (1) conditions requiring Langner to refrain from using alcohol and drugs; (2) conditions requiring Langner to undergo therapy; and (3) restrictions typically applied to perpetrators of sexual offenses against minors. We conclude the conditions are valid under Lent and the court did not abuse its discretion when it imposed them, and affirm the judgment.
