BRIAN DANIEL BONBRIGHT,                                    UNPUBLISHED OPINION




         PENOYAR, J. — Brian   Daniel Bonbright appeals his convictions of three counts of third

degree child rape, one count of third degree child molestation, and one count of felony
communication with a minor for immoral purposes. Bonbright argues that a public trial right
violation occurred when the trial court met in chambers, without him, to discuss a jury question

with counsel. He also challenges the trial court's imposition of a community custody term that

exceeded the statutory maximum sentence when combined with the term of confinement

imposed. Finally, Bonbright challenges several community custody conditions. There was no

public trial right violation, but we remand for resentencing because the trial court did not have
the statutory authority to (1)impose a community custody term that, when combined with the

term of confinement imposed, exceeded the statutory maximum sentence; 2)
                                                                      ( prohibit Bonbright

from contacting SMK's family members for life; or (3)order Bonbright to obtain a substance .
abuse evaluation.

                                              FACTS


         In   2009, Bonbright lived in Olympia with his wife and     two young   daughters. SMK,

Bonbright's wife's 15- old cousin, frequently visited the Bonbright home while her parents
                     year -

were   divorcing. SMK went to the Bonbright home after school approximately three times a

week; she also spent the night between five and six times per month. SMK " ecame part of [ he]
                                                                         b               t

         After SMK's spring break, the nature of her relationship with Bonbright changed.

Bonbright began sending SMK text messages with " irty pictures,"
                                               d               including photographs of his

penis, or " alking about stuff' that he wanted to do with SMK. 2 RP at 19.
          t

         One night, Bonbright was lying on a couch and told SMK he was waiting for her. She

lay next to him; Bonbright then.ook SMK's hand, put it down his pants, and rubbed it against
                               t
his   penis. He also put his hand up SMK's shirt. Approximately a week later, Bonbright had

sexual intercourse with SMK.        Bonbright had sexual intercourse with SMK on two more

occasions.



         In February 2010, SMK met with her mother and a counselor, Becky Cox. At one point

during the appointment; SMK spoke with the counselor alone. SMK told Cox that she had had
sexual intercourse with    Bonbright three times. Cox told SMK that she was required to report

what SMK had told her to law enforcement.


         The State charged Bonbright with three counts of third degree child rape, one count of

third degree child molestation, and one count of communication with a minor for immoral

purposes. The jury found Bonbright guilty as charged. .

         During deliberations, the jury sent the judge a written question. The judge, prosecutor,

and defense counsel met in chambers to discuss their response. The question asked the court:

         What. is the   legal                  immoral purposes "?

         The trial court imposed a sentence of 60 months' confinement for each count and 36

months of    community custody. The trial court ordered Bonbright to comply with several

conditions during the community custody term. Bonbright appeals.
                                                      ANALYSIS


I.       PUBLIC TRIAL


         Bonbright contends that a public trial right violation occurred when the trial court and

counsel conferred in chambers to determine how to respond to a jury inquiry. On this record, we

hold that the trial court did not violate Bonbright's or the public's right to an open and public
trial.


         Whether a public trial right violation exists is a question of law we review.de novo. State

v. Brightman, 155 Wn. d 506, 514, 122 P. d 150 (2005). The state and federal constitutions

a jury question seeking clarification of a jury instruction implicates the public trial right. State v

Sublett, 176 Wn. d 58, 292 P. d 715 (2012).In Sublett, the jury submitted a question to the trial
               2            3

counsel in chambers to address the question. Sublett, 176 Wn. d at 67. Counsel agreed to the

trial court's answer to the jury question, which stated that the jury must reread its instructions.

Sublett, 176 Wn. d at 67. The Supreme Court applied the experience and logic test and held that
               2

a public trial right violation had not occurred. Sublett, 176 Wn. d at 72. The experience prong
                                                                2

question concerning the instructions, we view this as similar in nature to proceedings regarding

jury instructions in general. Historically, such proceedings have not necessarily been conducted

in an open courtroom."Sublett, 176 Wn. d at 75.
                                     2

         As in Sublett, here, the in-
                                    chambers conference involved a jury inquiry regarding a jury

instruction.   Historically, open court proceedings have not been required to discuss inquiries

regarding jury instructions. Further, no witnesses or testimony were involved and the question

and answer were placed on the record. See Sublett, 176 Wn. d at 77. On this record, we hold
                                                         2
that the conference did not implicate either Bonbright's or the public's right to open proceedings.

H.     COMMUNITY CUSTODY TERM


       Bonbright correctly asserts that the trial court erred by ordering 60 months of

confinement and 36 months of community custody when the maximum sentence was 60 months.

The trial court did not have statutory authority to impose this sentence.

       A court's sentencing authority is limited to that granted by statute. State v. Skillman, 60
Wn.   App. 837, 838, 809 P. d 756 ( 1991). We review de novo questions of statutory
                          2


interpretation. Bennett, 168 Wn. App. at 207.

custody that exceeds the statutory maximum for the crime as provided in chapter 9A. 0 RCW."

        Here,the trial court sentenced Bonbright to 60 months' confinement. The trial court also

ordered Bonbright to serve 36 months of community custody. Bonbright's standard range term
of confinement in combination with the term of community custody exceeds the statutory

maximum.     We "remand to the trial court to either amend the community custody term or
                                                 5

III.      COMMUNITY CUSTODY CONDITIONS

          A.     No Contact


          First, Bonbright contends that the trial court erred by imposing the community custody

condition ordering "[ o contact with the victim, SMK[,] immediate family for life and or as
                   n]                                and                              /

noted by the Court."CP at 74. Bonbright contends that the condition is unauthorized because it
exceeds the statutory maximum sentence. Because the judgment and sentence orders Bonbright

not to contact the victim for five years, the maximum statutory sentence, we conclude that the

trial court did not err with regard to its prohibition of contact with SMK; however, the judgment

and sentence is silent as to her family, and we remand to the trial court to clarify that Bonbright

shall not contact SMK's immediate family for five years.

5 The State asks us to order the trial court to amend the judgment and sentence to provide for a
term of community custody to coincide with the period of earned release. Bonbright contends
that the trial court must impose a fixed determinate sentence that does not vary according to the
amount of early release. We decline to restrict the resentencing court's discretionary authority
on remand and thus do not address this issue.

SMK's immediate family; therefore, we remand to clarify that Bonbright shall not contact
SMK's immediate family for five years.

       B.          Right to Parent

       Bonbright contends that the condition prohibiting him from having unsupervised contact

with minors unconstitutionally infringes on his fundamental right to parent. Bonbright has three

daughters;   the    children   were   ages   5, 7, and 16   at the time of   Bonbright's trial.   Because


Bonbright viewed SMK as a member of his family, we conclude that the condition is reasonably
necessary.to further the State's compelling interest in preventing harm and protecting children.

       Parents have a fundamental right to raise their children without State interference.

Corbett, 158 Wn. App. at 598. "Sentencing courts can restrict fundamental parenting rights by

conditioning a criminal sentence if the condition is reasonably necessary to further the State's

compelling interest in preventing harm and protecting children."Corbett, 158 Wn. App. at 598.
Accordingly, we must determine whether the record supports the proposition that prohibiting
Bonbright from unsupervised in-
                              person contact with his biological minor children is reasonably
necessary to prevent harm to his children.

        This case is factually similar to Corbett, 158 Wn. App. 576, and State v. Berg, 147 Wn.

App. 923, 198 P. d 529 (2008),
               3             abrogated on other grounds by State v. Mutch, 171 Wn. d 646,
                                                                                 2

254 P. d 803 (2011).In Corbett, we upheld a community custody provision that prohibited the
     3

defendant from contact with his biological minor sons when the defendant sexually abused his

minor   stepdaughter   while she   was   living in   his home.   158 Wn. App. at 599. We affirmed the

provision, which prohibited the defendant from contacting all minors, because the defendant had

a history of using the trust established in a parental role to sexually abuse his stepdaughter.

Corbett, 158 Wn. App. at 599. Similarly, in Berg, Division One of this court affirmed the trial

court's order prohibiting the defendant from contact with female minors when the victim lived in
the home where the defendant        was   acting   as   her parent when the sexual abuse occurred. 147


Wn. App. at 942 43.

        SMK was treated like a member of the family when the sexual abuse occurred. At trial,

Bonbright's wife testified that SMK " ecame part of the] family like she was another daughter.
                                    b               [

We treated her just that way."3 RP at 173. Bonbright testified that SMK " ecame basically an
                                                                        b
intricate member of the     family." 3     RP at 202.       SMK spent the night at the Bonbright home

several times per month and visited the house approximately three times each week. Bonbright

abused his role as a parental figure during this time. Because Bonbright's victim was treated as a,

member of his family, we conclude that the trial court did not err by prohibiting Bonbright from

unsupervised     person contact with his
               in-                            biological   minor children.

        C.      Sexual Deviancy Treatment

        Bonbright argues that the trial court erred by ordering him to participate in a sexual

deviancy treatment program. Bonbright alleges that (1) condition is not sufficiently crime-
                                                      the

related because there is no evidence he has a sexual deviancy and (2) court did not make the
                                                                     the

requisite findings to order his participation in such a program. He contends that a sex offense

conviction is not "per se sufficient to show an offender has a sexual deviancy." Reply Br. of

Appellant at 8. Because there is evidence that Bonbright has a sexual deviancy and the treatment

program requirement is sufficiently crime related, we hold that the trial court did not err by

ordering the treatment.

        Bonbright relies on State v. Bahl, 164 Wn. d 739, 193 P. d 678 (2008), support his
                                                 2             3             to
assertion. His reliance         on   Bahl is   inapposite. In Bahl, our Supreme Court concluded that a

condition prohibiting the defendant from possessing or controlling sexual stimulus for his

particular deviancy, as defined by the supervising Community Corrections Officer and therapist,
was   unconstitutionally    vague.      164 Wn. d at 761. Bonbright's challenge, in contrast, is not a
                                              2

vagueness challenge.

        Here, a jury convicted Bonbright of 'third degree child rape, third degree child

molestation, and felony communication with                 a   minor for   immoral purposes.   Under RCW


c),
703( 4A.the court may order an offender to "[

counseling   services"     as   part of any      term of   community custody.      Contrary to Bonbright's

assertions, there is evidence that Bonbright has a sexual deviancy: his sexual contact with SMK

was criminal. The sexual deviancy treatment program is related to his crime. We conclude that

the trial court had authority to order Bonbright to participate in a sexual deviancy treatment

program

       D.        Sexually Explicit Material

       Bonbright also argues that the condition prohibiting him from possessing or perusing

sexually explicit      material is   unconstitutionally   vague.    He contends that "` exually explicit
                                                                                      s

material' does not provide ordinary persons with clear warning of what is proscribed." Br. of

Appellant    at 41.     Because the phrase is sufficiently clear, we hold that the condition is not

unconstitutionally vague.

       The due process vagueness doctrine under the Fourteenth Amendment and article I,

section 3 of the state constitution requires that citizens have fair warning of proscribed conduct.

Bahl, 164 Wn. d

phrase "sexually explicit" in a community custody condition prohibiting the defendant from

frequenting establishments whose primary business pertains to sexually explicit or erotic
material   was   not   unconstitutionally   vague.   164 Wn. d at 760. The Supreme Court concluded

that the condition was sufficiently clear when all of the challenged terms, with their dictionary

definitions, were considered together. Bahl, 164 Wn. d at 759 60.
                                                   2          -

       First, the Bahl court examined the dictionary definition of sexually explicit:"
                                                                   "

                     The dictionary definition of "explicit" is "characterized by full clear
       expression: being without vagueness or ambiguity . . . UNEQUIVOCAL."
       WEBSTER'S THIRD NEW INTERNATIONAL DICTIONARY 801 ( 2002)].
                       [
       The defendant] says that adding "sexual" to the term does not make it any
       clearer, because a "clear expression of sexuality" or "unequivocal sexual" is not
       illuminating. [The defendant's]   parsing of the phrase is artificial. Implementing
       the dictionary definition, the phrase more correctly is "clearly expressed sexual"
       materials or materials that are unequivocally sexual in nature.

164 Wn. d at 758 59.

        The Supreme Court also noted that the phrase "sexually explicit" is defined in RCW

        definition.


        Further, the Supreme Court noted that other courts, including the Ninth Circuit, have
concluded that the          phrase "sexually explicit   conduct" is neither vague   nor   overly broad. See

United States v. Rearden, 349 F. d 608, 620 (9th Cir. 2003). Although the community custody
                               3

provision at issue in Bahl is different from the condition at issue here, the Supreme Court's

analysis   is   helpful. The dictionary definition and the statutory definition of sexually explicit
                                                         11

material provide Bonbright with sufficient notice of what conduct is prohibited. We conclude

that the condition Bonbright challenges is not unconstitutionally vague.

       E.        Overbreadth


       Bonbright     asserts   that   the   conditions       ordering him to "[s] out of business
                                                                                tay

overbroad. Br. of    Appellant    at 42.    Because the prohibitions are crime -related conditions of

community custody, we reject his overbreadth challenge.

       A criminal statute that `sweeps constitutionally protected free speech activities within its

prohibitions' may be overbroad and thus violate the First Amendment."State v. Stephenson, 89

Wn. App. 794, 800, 950 P. d 38 (1998) quoting City of Seattle v. Abercrombie, 85 Wn. App.

393, 397, 945 P. d 1132 (1997). When considering whether a criminal statute is overbroad,
               2


courts consider whether (1)the challenged statute reaches constitutionally protected speech or

expression   and ( 2)whether it       proscribes   a   real and substantial amount of   speech. State v.

Knowles, 91 Wn. App. 367, 372, 957 P. d 797 (1998). However, an offender's constitutional
                                    2               "

rejecting defendant's argument that community custody conditions relating to pornography were

overbroad because they were crime -related conditions).

        Here, Bonbright is      not    challenging     criminal statutes.   He is challenging conditions

imposed   as a
                 part of his community custody          sentence.   He does not argue that the trial court

imposed conditions that do not reasonably relate to the circumstances of his offense, his risk of

        The State concedes that because substance abuse played no part in Bonbright's crimes,

the trial court erred     by ordering Bonbright   to   obtain   a   substance abuse evaluation. We agree.


Without evidence that substance use or abuse contributed to Bonbright's crimes, the court could

not impose any substance abuse evaluation or treatment conditions.
