_______________
Dean J. Adams was charged with a violation of Penal Code section 4501, assault likely to cause great bodily harm, committed by a prisoner confined to a state prison, and with having suffered four prior convictions for serious or violent felonies pursuant to Penal Code section 1170.12, subdivision (a) and 667, subdivisions (b) through (i). Appellant pled no contest to the new charge and admitted the prior convictions. Three of the four convictions were stricken by the trial court, and appellant was sentenced to a total of four years in state prison.
We appointed counsel to represent him on appeal. After examination of the record, counsel filed an opening brief in which no issues were raised. On March 19, 2007, counsel advised appellant that she intended to file such a brief, advised appellant that he could submit a supplemental brief on his own behalf, and transmitted a copy of the record on appeal to appellant. Further, on March 26, 2007, we advised appellant that he had 30 days within which to personally submit any contentions or issues which he wished us to consider.
On April 17, appellant moved for an extension of time in which to file his brief. We granted the request, ruling that appellant's brief would be due on or before May 26, 2007. No brief has been received from appellant to this date.
We have examined the entire record and are satisfied that appellant's attorney has fully complied with her responsibilities and no arguable issues exist. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, 441.)
