Antonio M. appeals orders of the juvenile court sustaining a petition charging him with one count of assault with a firearm, continuing his wardship, and placing him in juvenile justice facilities for a period not to exceed 365 days.
On November 17, 2006, the prosecutor filed a petition pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code section 602, alleging that Antonio M. had committed two counts of assault with a firearm. (Pen. Code, § 245, subd. (a)(2).) Evidence at the adjudication hearing established that Antonio M. and two companions approached Paulino Lopez and his friends as they sat on the front porch of the Lopez residence. One of Antonio M.'s companions fired a gun and struck the front door, a sofa, and a cabinet inside the residence. Lopez and his son identified Antonio M., in part because he rode a distinctive bicycle, and Lopez's son had seen him previously at school.
The juvenile court granted a defense motion to dismiss the assault charges concerning one alleged victim. It then sustained the petition regarding the assault with a firearm against victim Lopez. (Pen. Code, § 245, subd. (a)(2).)
In July 2007, the probation officer filed a petition alleging that Antonio M. had violated probation which was granted after prior adjudications. The juvenile court held a probation violation hearing on August 20, 2007. It found that Antonio M. violated probation by possessing a box cutter and a blanket depicting a marijuana leaf. On September 18, 2007, the court continued Antonio M. as a ward of the court and ordered his placement in juvenile justice facilities for a period not to exceed 365 days.
We appointed counsel to represent Antonio M. in this appeal. After counsel's examination of the record, she filed an opening brief raising no issues.
On January 31, 2008, we advised Antonio M. that he had 30 days within which to personally submit any contentions or issues that he wished to raise on appeal. We have received no response from him.
We have reviewed the entire record and are satisfied that Antonio M.'s attorney has complied fully with her responsibilities and that no arguable issue exists. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, 444.)
The orders are affirmed.
We concur: YEGAN, J., COFFEE, J.
