California Rules of Court, rule 8.1115(a), prohibits courts and parties from citing or relying on opinions not certified for publication or ordered published, except as specified by rule 8.1115(b). This opinion has not been certified for publication or ordered published for purposes of rule 8.1115. (Super. Ct. No. 2016019487)
(Ventura County)
Michael Wayne Smith pled guilty to two counts of possessing child pornography (Pen. Code, §§ 311.1, 311.11, subds. (a) & (c)(1).) The trial court suspended imposition of sentence and placed Smith on five years formal probation Smith appeals on the ground that his counsel provided ineffective assistance. The trial court granted his petition for a certificate of probable cause.
We appointed counsel to represent Smith in this appeal. After counsel's examination of the record, he filed an opening brief raising no issues.
On October 13, 2017, we advised Smith by mail that he had 30 days within which to personally submit any contentions or issues that he wished to raise on appeal. We received no reply.
We have reviewed the entire record and are satisfied that Smith's attorney has fully complied with his responsibilities and that no arguable issue exists. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, 441.)
The judgment is affirmed.
