(Los Angeles County)
A.O. appeals from a judgment after the juvenile court sustained a petition alleging he committed misdemeanor battery. (Pen. Code, § 242.)
A.O. pushed his mother into a dresser and squeezed her arm. She sustained bruises on her heel and arm. The juvenile court ordered A.O. suitably placed in an open facility, with a maximum confinement term of six months. The court awarded him 25 days of predisposition credits.
We appointed counsel to represent A.O. in this appeal. After counsel's examination of the record, he filed an opening brief that raised no arguable issues. On June 12, 2017, we advised A.O. by mail that he had 30 days within which to submit any contentions or issues he wished to raise on appeal. We have not received a response.
We have reviewed the entire record and are satisfied that A.O.'s attorney fully complied with his responsibilities and that no arguable issue exists. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, 441.)
The judgment is affirmed.
