(Los Angeles County)
Mario Solorzano appeals from the judgment entered after his no contest plea to two counts of attempted murder (Pen. Code, §§ 664/187, subd. (a)) and his admission that he was personally armed with a firearm and personally inflicted great bodily injury. (§§ 12022.5, 12022.7, subd. (a).) Pursuant to the plea bargain, the court imposed a total aggregate term of 24 years, 4 months in state prison. Appellant filed a notice of appeal and obtained a certificate of probable cause.
On January 23, 2010, appellant was driving a car with his 16-year old passenger, Elmer. Appellant pulled up next to Guillermo and Jorge, who were walking along the road. Appellant and Elmer pointed handguns at the men, and appellant said, "This is NSLS (Non-Stop Locos Street Gang), where are you from? Jorge replied, "Nowhere." Appellant fired at the men, who dropped to the ground. They stood up, and appellant fired again, striking Guillermo's hand.
We appointed counsel to represent appellant in this appeal. After examining the record, counsel filed an opening brief raising no issues and requesting that this court independently examine the record pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.
On July 20, 2011, we advised appellant that he had 30 days within which to personally submit any contentions or issues he wished to raise on appeal. We have received no response from him.
We have reviewed the entire record and are satisfied that appellant's attorney has fully complied with her responsibilities and that no arguable issue exists. (People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, 124; People v. Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d at p. 441.)
