Existing law prohibits a ward committed to the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation, Division of Juvenile Facilities from being held in physical confinement for a period of time in excess of the maximum period of imprisonment that could be imposed upon an adult convicted of the offense that brought or continued the minor under the jurisdiction of the juvenile court, or in excess of the maximum term of physical confinement set by the court, as specified. Existing law states that those provisions do not limit the power of the Board of Juvenile Hearings to retain the ward on parole status for the period permitted by specified provisions governing discharge of the person from the division. Under existing law, the department has no further jurisdiction over a ward who is discharged by the board, except as specified. Existing law requires the committing court to establish the conditions of the ward's supervision and requires the county of commitment to supervise the reentry of the ward. This bill would instead state that those limitations on the length of the physical confinement of a ward do not limit the power of the Board of Juvenile Hearings to discharge specified wards. The bill would authorize the committing juvenile court to retain jurisdiction and to establish the conditions of supervision of a ward upon discharge from commitment to the custody of the division. The bill would require the juvenile court to set a maximum term based upon the facts and circumstances of the matter or matters that brought or continued the ward under the jurisdiction of the court and as deemed appropriate to achieve rehabilitation.
