(San Luis Obispo County)
Appellant was convicted by jury of possessing a deadly weapon in a penal institution. (Pen. Code, § 4502, subd. (a).) Because he had two prior "strike" convictions, the trial court sentenced him to an indeterminate 25-year-to-life term under the three strikes law. (Id., §§ 667, subds. (b)-(i); 1170.12.) He appealed that judgment and we affirmed it. (April 6, 2009, B203754 [nonpub. opn.].)
We grant appellant's request and have taken judicial notice of the records in Case No. B203754. (Evid. Code, § 452.)
On January 10, 2014, appellant moved to recall his sentence pursuant to Proposition 36. (Pen. Code, § 1170.126.) In denying the motion, the trial court reasoned that appellant was ineligible for resentencing because he was armed with a deadly weapon at the time he committed the offense. (Id., §§ 1170.12, subd. (c)(2)(C)(iii); 1170.126, subd. (e)(2).)
We appointed counsel to represent appellant in this appeal. After counsel's examination of the record she filed a brief raising no issues and requesting our independent review pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436. We notified appellant that he had 30 days in which to advise us of any claims he wished us to consider. We have received no response.
We have reviewed the entire record and are satisfied that appellant's counsel has fully complied with her responsibilities, and that no arguable issue exists. (People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, 123-124; People v. Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d at p. 441.)
The judgment (order) is affirmed.
