NOT TO BE PUBLISHED
APPEAL from an order of the Superior Court of San Diego County, No. SCE412383, Sherry M. Thompson-Taylor, Judge.
Thien Huong Tran, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant.
No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent.
KELETY, J.
In May 2022, an El Cajon police officer stopped Jimmy Daril Smith while riding a bicycle because he did not have a rear red reflector on his bicycle. When questioned by the officer, Smith admitted that he had a knife in his pocket and, after being handcuffed, the officer located an unsheathed four-inch fixed blade knife in Smith's pocket. Smith was charged with carrying a concealed dirk or dagger (Pen. Code, § 21310). The complaint alleged a strike prior.
In 2023, Smith pled guilty to the charge and admitted the strike prior. Thereafter, the court granted Smith's motion to withdraw his guilty plea. At trial, the jury convicted him of the charged offense, and Smith admitted the strike prior.
At sentencing, the court denied Smith's motion to reduce the offense to a misdemeanor, but granted the defense motions to strike the strike prior pursuant to People v. Romero (1996) 13 Cal.4th 497, and to strike fines and fees pursuant to People v. Duenas (2019) 30 Cal.App.5th 1157. The court sentenced Smith to 365 days in custody, and two years' probation with a condition, inter alia, that he participate in a cognitive behavioral counseling program.
Smith filed a timely notice of appeal.
Smith's appellate counsel filed a brief pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 (Wende), indicating that counsel has not been able to identify any potentially meritorious issues for reversal on appeal. Counsel asked the court to review the record for error as mandated by Wende. Counsel also filed a declaration stating that counsel provided Smith with a copy of the Wende brief and advised Smith of the Wende procedures and of his right to file a supplemental brief and to move to relieve counsel. No supplemental brief has been received.
To assist the court in its review, and in compliance with Anders v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 738 (Anders), counsel has identified the following possible issues that were considered in evaluating the potential merits of Smith's appeal: whether the trial court improperly denied appellant's motion to dismiss the section 21310 charge on the basis that it violated his Second Amendment right to bear arms; and whether probation condition 14c ("[d]o not remain in the presence of any person who you know illegally possesses a firearm, deadly weapon, or ammunition") is unconstitutionally overbroad.
DISCUSSION
We have reviewed the entire record as required by Wende and Anders. We have not discovered any arguable issues for reversal on appeal. Competent counsel has represented Smith on this appeal. We therefore affirm.
DISPOSITION
The judgment is affirmed.
