N.B., a juvenile, appeals a probation condition imposed by the juvenile court after his admission at disposition, on grounds that the condition is unconstitutionally vague and overbroad. We conclude that the probation condition is neither unconstitutionally vague nor overbroad, and we accordingly affirm. FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND N.B. admitted to felony assault, and the juvenile court placed N.B. on probation. (Pen. Code, § 245, subd. (a)(1).) The juvenile court found N.B. had made a knowing, intelligent, and voluntary waiver of his constitutional rights, adjudged him as a ward of the court, and imposed a list of probation conditions. At disposition, defense counsel objected to a condition extending N.B.’s Fourth Amendment waiver to permit law enforcement to search N.B.’s electronic devices. Defense counsel did not, however, object to any other condition, including one requiring N.B. to “not use, sell or possess alcohol, drugs, drug paraphernalia, harmful intoxicants, non-prescribed medications, or any type of mind-altering substances.” Defense counsel timely filed a notice of appeal which appealed the September 24, 2024, disposition hearing order which extended N.B.’s Fourth Amendment waiver to his electronic devices. The notice does not expressly list the condition prohibiting use or possession of non-prescribed medications. Despite this, N.B.’s briefs solely challenge the condition requiring him to “not use, sell or possess . . . non-prescribed medications” (hereafter “the condition”).
