The following excerpt is from People v. L.W. (In re L.W.), A145651 (Cal. App. 2016):
He first points out the juvenile court orally stated he could earn "1 hour per C [grade]" and "hour for hour credit for counseling" toward volunteer work requirements, but the written order contains no such terms. The Attorney General agrees this is a material omission and the written order should be modified to include these terms. We agree, as well, and will order the order modified accordingly. (See People v. Mitchell (2001) 26 Cal.4th 181, 185-186 [appellate court has inherent power to correct clerical errors in the record so it is consistent with oral pronouncement].)
