THE PEOPLE, Plaintiff and Respondent, v. DARON LAMON McBRIDE, Defendant and Appellant.
Jan B. Norman, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant. No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent.
Daron Lamon McBride was charged with three counts of selling marijuana and four counts of selling cocaine. Based on the testimony of the narcotics investigators who arranged the drug buys, the testimony of an informant who made five buys and identified McBride, the testimony of a detective who made the remaining two buys, videotapes of the buys, and substantial additional evidence, McBride was convicted as charged, and he admitted that he had suffered a prior conviction pursuant to Health and Safety Code section 11370.2. McBride was sentenced to state prison for a term of eight years, four months.
McBride filed a notice of appeal, and we appointed counsel to represent him. After reviewing the record, appellate counsel filed an opening brief in which no issues were raised. On September 10, 2003, we notified McBride that he had 30 days within which to submit any issues that he wanted us to consider. He has not responded. We have independently examined the record and are satisfied that no arguable issues exist. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.)
The judgment is affirmed.
We concur: ORTEGA, Acting P.J. MALLANO, J.
