Opinion


THE PEOPLE, Plaintiff and Respondent, v. STEVEN DONALD TABER, Defendant and Appellant. C062327 California Court of Appeal, Third District, San Joaquin December 2, 2009

NOT TO BE PUBLISHED

Super. Ct. No. SF111682A

HULL, J.

Defendant Steven Donald Taber entered a negotiated plea of no contest to knowingly possessing a stolen credit card and a stolen driver’s license (Pen. Code, § 496, subd. (a)), in exchange for dismissal of a first degree burglary charge (Pen. Code, § 459) and a special allegation prohibiting probation in the event of a violent felony (Pen. Code, § 1203, subd. (k)) and the promise of a 16-month sentence. The parties stipulated that defendant was addicted to or in danger of becoming addicted to a controlled substance. The court sentenced defendant to 16 months in state prison and imposed specified fees and fines. Pursuant to the parties’ stipulation, the court suspended criminal proceedings and committed defendant to the California Rehabilitation Center pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 3051. Defendant filed a timely notice of appeal.

We appointed counsel to represent defendant on appeal. Counsel filed an opening brief that sets forth the facts of the case and requests this court to review the record and determine whether there are any arguable issues on appeal. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.) Defendant was advised by counsel of the right to file a supplemental brief within 30 days of the date of filing of the opening brief. More than 30 days elapsed, and we received no communication from defendant.

Having undertaken an examination of the entire record, we find no arguable error in favor of defendant.

DISPOSITION

The judgment is affirmed.

We concur: SIMS , Acting P. J., CANTIL-SAKAUYE , J.
