(Los Angeles County)

Donald Gus Brown appeals an order revoking his probation. Brown was on probation in two separate cases for possession of cocaine. (Health & Saf. Code, § 13350, subd. (a).) On January 4, 2012, the People filed a petition to revoke Brown's probation in both cases. The petition alleged that Brown struck his cohabitant girlfriend several times in her face and body with his fists and bit her. When she tried to call the police, he took her cellphone away.

After a contested hearing, the trial court revoked Brown's probation in each case and sentenced him to two years in state prison.

We appointed counsel to represent Brown on appeal. Counsel filed a brief raising no issues.

Brown's brief raises matters outside the record. We cannot consider matters outside the record. (6 Witkin & Epstein, Cal. Criminal Law (4th ed. 2012) Criminal Appeal, § 164, p. 446.)

We have reviewed the entire record and are satisfied Brown's attorney has fully complied with his responsibility. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, 441.) We have also reviewed Brown's contentions, and did not find any arguable issue. (People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, 126.)

The judgment is affirmed.
