Berley, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant. No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent.
____________________
Defendant Gingie Miiuaan Teague stabbed her 82-year-old neighbor to death and took his radio. The trial court, sitting without a jury, convicted her of second degree murder and sentenced her to prison for 16 years to life. In 1995, this court affirmed the judgment of conviction.
In May 2019, Teague filed a petition for resentencing pursuant to Penal Code section 1170.95. The trial court denied the petition, and Teague appealed from the order denying her petition.
Appellate counsel filed a brief identifying no issue and invited this court to independently review the entire record for arguable issues. This court notified Teague that she had 30 days to file a supplemental brief. Teague did not file a supplemental brief. This court has no independent duty to review the record for reasonably arguable issues. (People v. Cole (Aug. 3, 2020, No. B304329) ___ Cal.App. 5th ___ [2020 Cal.App.Lexis 717 at pp. 22-23].) The appeal must therefore be dismissed as abandoned. (Id. at pp. 23-24.)
DISPOSITION
The appeal is dismissed.
