Plaintiff and Respondent,

v. (Super. Ct. No. FVI23000975)

LUIS JERRY CONTRERAS,

Defendant and Appellant.

APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of San Bernardino County, Michael A. Dauber, Judge. Affirmed as modified. Charles Thomas Anderson, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant. Rob Bonta, Attorney General, Charles C. Ragland, Assistant Attorney General, Robin Urbanski and Donald W. Ostertag, Deputy Attorneys General, for Plaintiff and Respondent. MEMORANDUM OPINION After the trial court sentenced Luis Jerry Contreras, a probation officer asked to add another probation condition not originally imposed.

The trial court did not impose a no-alcohol condition, which would have prohibited Contreras from “possess[ing] [ ]or consum[ing] any alcoholic beverages” or “enter[ing] places where such beverages are the chief item of sale, such as bars and liquor stores,” and required him to “submit to tests” as directed by his probation officer. Several weeks later, the probation officer recommended the trial court add the no-alcohol condition to Contreras’ probation. The probation officer did not cite any new facts prompting this change. Rather, he observed only that the original sentence did not include this condition. In the probation officer’s opinion, the no-alcohol condition was appropriate “for the safety of
