* Before Hill, P. J., Detjen, J. and Snauffer, J.

In 2019, minor, P.V., was found by the juvenile court to have possessed child pornography and committed battery on a school, park, or hospital property. The court found the allegations true, declared minor a ward of the court, and placed him on probation not to exceed his 21st birthday. In July 2023, minor was found to have violated probation. He was continued as a ward of the court, continued on probation, committed to Camp Erwin Owen (stayed), and ordered to serve a total of 31 days in a juvenile detention center, enroll in AA/NA classes, and enroll in a counseling program. The court found the maximum term of confinement to be one year four months, less 11 days credit for time served, and determined his wardship would not exceed his 21st birthday. In December 2023, the court found minor had tested positive for alcohol and failed to comply with the order to seek counseling; accordingly, it lifted the stay on the commitment to Camp Erwin Owen. Minor now appeals that disposition order. Minor’s counsel on appeal filed a brief that summarizes the case and facts with citations to the record, raises no issues, and asks this court to independently review the record. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.) We sent a letter advising minor of his right to file a supplemental brief raising any grounds he would like this court to consider. Minor did not respond. We have conducted an independent review. Finding that no reasonably arguable legal or factual issues exist, we affirm. PROCEDURAL SUMMARY On July 31, 2019, the Kern County District Attorney filed a juvenile wardship petition (Welf. & Inst. Code, § 602, subd. (a)), alleging minor committed misdemeanor possession of child pornography (Pen. Code, §§ 311.11, subd. (a), 17; count 1).1
