IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA

SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT

DIVISION SIX


THE PEOPLE,

Plaintiff and Respondent,

v.

ALBERT SALINAS LARA,

Defendant and Appellant.
2d Crim. No. B276764
(Super. Ct. No. 2016002098)
(Ventura County)

Albert Salinas Lara appeals a judgment following his conviction by jury of one count of willful infliction of corporal injury on a former girlfriend and cohabitant. (Pen. Code, § 273.5, subd. (a).)
Lara pulled his girlfriend out of a vehicle, grabbed her by the hair, yanked her down some stairs, and punched and kicked her. At trial, he admitted a prior strike conviction. The trial court sentenced him to six years in prison: the midterm of three years, doubled because of Lara’s prior strike conviction.
We appointed counsel to represent Lara in this appeal. After counsel’s examination of the record, she filed an opening brief that raised no arguable issues. On February 27, 2017, we advised Lara by mail that he had 30 days within which to submit any contentions or issues that he wished to raise on appeal. We have not received a response.
We have reviewed the entire record and are satisfied that Lara’s attorney fully complied with her responsibilities and that no arguable issue exists. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, 441.)
The judgment is affirmed.
