(Ventura County)
D.C., a minor, appeals from an order adjudicating him a ward of the court under Welfare and Institutions Code section 602.
Further unspecified statutory references are to the Welfare and Institutions Code. --------
D.C. and the victim were both staying at D.C.'s friend's house. During the night, D.C. woke up and allegedly saw the victim molesting his friend. D.C. went to the kitchen, grabbed a knife, and stabbed the victim three times (twice in the ribcage and once in the temple). The victim required six sutures on the ribcage and five sutures on the temple.
D.C. admitted the allegations that he committed assault with a deadly weapon (Pen. Code, § 245, subd. (a)(1)) and inflicted great bodily injury (Pen. Code, § 12022.7, subd. (a)). He also admitted two probation violations. The juvenile court terminated his probation and continued him as a ward of the court under section 602. It committed him to the Division of Juvenile Justice for a total of seven years (four years for assault and three years for the great bodily injury enhancement). The court ordered a total of $1,150 in restitution fines in eight cases including the current case, but it stayed the fines pursuant to People v. Dueñas (2019) 30 Cal.App.5th 1157.
We appointed counsel to represent D.C. in this appeal. After counsel's examination of the record, he filed an opening brief raising no issues. On May 30, 2019, we advised D.C. that he had 30 days within which to personally submit any contentions or issues that he wished to raise on appeal. We have not received a response.
We have reviewed the entire record and are satisfied that D.C.'s attorney has fully complied with his responsibilities and that no arguable issue exists. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, 441.)
The order is affirmed.
