Opinion


THE PEOPLE, Plaintiff and Respondent, v. CRAIG ANTHONY CAMERON, Defendant and Appellant. D051750 California Court of Appeal, Fourth District, First Division February 14, 2008

NOT TO BE PUBLISHED IN OFFICIAL REPORTS

APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of San Diego County No. SCD200686, David J. Danielsen, Judge.

NARES, J.

Craig Anthony Cameron entered a negotiated guilty plea to one count of residential burglary (Pen. Code, §§ 459/460), one count of second degree burglary (§ 459) and one count of grand theft. Cameron also admitted he had a prior serious felony conviction (§ 667, subd. (a)), a prior serious/violent felony or strike conviction (§ 667, subds. (b)-(i)), and four prior prison term convictions (§ 667.5, subd. (b)). The plea agreement provided for a sentencing lid of 13 years, with Cameron retaining the right to argue for a lower term at the sentencing hearing. The court sentenced Cameron to an aggregate sentence of 10 years four months in prison.

Statutory references are to the Penal Code.

FACTS

On March 13, 2005, police responded to a burglary call at a residence on Towne Center Drive. The side door to the garage had been broken inward, the door's wooden frame was on the floor, and the deadbolt was damaged. A new mountain bike and child trail-along were missing. A fingerprint taken from the garage door matched Cameron's fingerprint.

On March 2, 2006, police responded to a burglary call at Roadside Assistance Services. The total value of items stolen was $35,538.55. A cigarette butt found next to a service bay near the point of entry was found. DNA on the cigarette butt matched Cameron's DNA.

DISCUSSION

Appointed appellate counsel has filed a brief setting forth evidence in the superior court. Counsel presents no argument for reversal, but asks this court to review the record for error as mandated by People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436. Pursuant to Anders v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 738, counsel refers to as possible, but not arguable, issues: (1) whether Cameron's guilty plea was constitutionally valid; and (2) whether Cameron received ineffective assistance of counsel.

We granted Cameron permission to file a brief on his own behalf. He has not responded.

A review of the record pursuant to People v. Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d 436 and Anders v. California, supra, 386 U.S. 738, including the possible issues referred to by appellate counsel, has disclosed no reasonably arguable appellate issues. Competent counsel has represented Cameron on this appeal.

DISPOSITION

The judgment is affirmed.

WE CONCUR: BENKE, Acting P. J., McINTYRE, J.
