In re A.S.
Annotate this CaseThe Alameda County District Attorney filed a juvenile wardship petition under Welfare and Institutions Code 602, 2 alleging that 17-year-old A.S. committed a misdemeanor assault (against her mother) by means likely to produce great bodily injury (Pen. Code, 245, (a)(4)). The court declared her a ward of the juvenile court. Her probation conditions required to submit her “electronics including passwords under [her] control” to warrantless searches by the probation department and law enforcement (electronic search condition) and prohibited her from unauthorized or unsupervised presence on school property (school grounds condition). The court of appeal modified the order. Under the particularized facts of this case, the electronic search condition is reasonable under the test established by People v. Lent, and is not unconstitutionally overbroad. The school grounds condition, however, was unconstitutionally vague because it did not incorporate a “knowledge” requirement so as to prohibit the unauthorized or unsupervised presence on property she knows is school property.
