    UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff—Appellee, v. JUVENILE MALE, Defendant-Appellant.
    No. 10-10015.
    United States Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit.
    Argued and Submitted Jan. 10, 2011.
    Filed Jan. 20, 2011.
    Before: HUG, SCHROEDER, and RAWLINSON, Circuit Judges.
   MEMORANDUM

Appellant L.F. challenges the district court’s disposition for L.F.’s violation of his probation. L.F. contends that the district court abused its discretion in ordering L.F. to continue his probation for a period of twelve to eighteen months at a Montana treatment center located 1,200 miles from his home and family.

The district court did not abuse its discretion, as it properly weighed the requisite factors in deciding that L.F.’s rehabilitative needs could not be served by placement in local treatment programs. The district court extensively considered L.F.’s separation from his family and the psychological evaluation in the record. In sum, the district court “provide[d] a reasoned basis for why it ... rejected less restrictive interventions.” United States v. Juvenile, 347 F.3d 778, 788 (9th Cir. 2003) (citations omitted).

The district court’s continuation of L.F.’s probation for sixty months comported with the Federal Juvenile Delinquency Act’s requirements. See id. at 784. L.F. was not entitled to any credit for his pretrial detention relative to his probation, as he was not sentenced to imprisonment. See United States v. Sullivan, 504 F.3d 969, 971 (9th Cir.2007) (observing that “detention at a community treatment center, where the defendant is not subject to the control of the Bureau of Prisons, is not imprisonment”) (citation and internal quotation marks omitted).

Because the district court retained ultimate authority over L.F.’s sentence and the monitoring of L.F.’s rehabilitative progress, the district court did not impermissibly delegate authority to the probation officer and the treatment center’s staff in determining L.F.’s compliance with the probation conditions. See United States v. Stephens, 424 F.3d 876, 882 (9th Cir.2005); see also United States v. Rearden, 349 F.3d 608, 619 (9th Cir.2003).

AFFIRMED. 
      
       This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
     
      
      . We deny Appellee’s January 6, 2011, Emergency Motion Under Ninth Circuit Rule 27-3: To Vacate Oral Argument Scheduled For January 10, 2011, Because Case Has Become Moot. Because L.F.'s probation was continued for sixty months and the district court has not determined that L.F: has completed the treatment program, this appeal is not moot as we can "grant ... effectual relief ... in favor of the appellant.” Mujahid v. Daniels, 413 F.3d 991, 994 (9th Cir.2005) (citation omitted).
