No. TA140282) APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County, H. Clay Jacke II, Judge. Affirmed. Caitlin M. Plummer, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant. No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent.
INTRODUCTION
A jury convicted defendant Jay Jay Lee of attempted murder. (Pen. Code, §§ 664, 187, subd. (a).) The jury found defendant personally inflicted great bodily injury and personally used a deadly weapon. (§§ 12022.7, subd. (a); 12022, subd. (b)(1).) The trial court found true but then struck a prior separate prison term allegation. (§ 667.5, subd. (b).) The trial court sentenced defendant to 13 years in state prison.
Further statutory references are to the Penal Code.
Defendant's appointed counsel filed an opening brief in accordance with People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 requesting this court to independently review the record to determine if there are any arguable issues. On August 22, 2017, we gave notice to defendant that appointed appellate counsel had failed to find any arguable issues and defendant had 30 days within which to submit by brief or letter any grounds of appeal, contentions, or arguments he wished this court to consider. Defendant did not file a brief or letter. We affirm.
DISCUSSION
We have reviewed the record and are satisfied that defendant's counsel has fully complied with her responsibilities and no arguable issues exist. (People v. Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d at p. 441.) Accordingly, we affirm the judgment.
DISPOSITION
The judgment is affirmed.
