Opinion


THE PEOPLE, Plaintiff and Respondent, v. JUAN MORALES CERVANTEZ, Defendant and Appellant. H031096 California Court of Appeal, Sixth District October 4, 2007

NOT TO BE PUBLISHED IN OFFICIAL REPORTS

Monterey County Super. Ct. No. SS043101

rushing, P.J.

On February 1, 2005, defendant Juan Morales Cervantez pleaded guilty to one felony charge of transporting cocaine (Health & Saf. Code, § 11352), and one misdemeanor charge of driving with a blood alcohol content over the legal limit. (Veh. Code § 23152, subd. (b).) The trial court placed defendant on probation for five years with a number of conditions. On November 28, 2006, defendant admitted he had violated probation by failing to comply with a number of the probation conditions and the trial court terminated probation, sentencing the defendant to four years in state prison. The defendant filed a timely notice of appeal from this judgment on January 4, 2007.

Thereafter, the defendant, assisted by new counsel, moved to recall his sentence pursuant to Penal Code section 1170, subdivision (d). The court granted the motion and imposed a four year prison term and suspended the execution of that sentence. The court reinstated probation on the condition the defendant serve additional time in the county jail, and comply with further probation conditions as well as the conditions originally imposed. Defendant was released from county jail on April 16, 2007.

Pursuant to defendant’s request, we appointed counsel to represent defendant in this court. Appointed counsel filed an opening brief which states the case and the facts but raises no specific issues. We notified defendant of his right to submit written argument in his own behalf within 30 days. That period has elapsed and we have received no written argument from defendant.

Pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, we have reviewed the entire record and have concluded that there is no arguable issue on appeal.

Disposition

The judgment is affirmed.

WE CONCUR: PREMO, J., ELIA, J.
