John Michael Coons appeals his convictions following revocation of probation in case Nos. LA040819 (Case 1) and LA044589 (Case 2). His appointed counsel filed a brief pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 (Wende), raising no issues. Appellant was notified that he could file his own brief, and has not done so.
In Case 1, appellant was charged with sale of a controlled substance and subsequently pled guilty to accessory to a felony. The evidence at the preliminary hearing showed that appellant helped another man sell rock cocaine to an undercover officer. While appellant was on probation in Case 1, he was arrested in Case 2. In that case, he pled guilty to possession of a controlled substance, and was again placed on probation. The preliminary hearing evidence showed that a police officer found rock cocaine in appellant's pocket, after stopping his car. Probation was eventually revoked on both cases, based on evidence that a police officer saw appellant holding a baggie that contained rock cocaine. Appellant was sentenced to a total of two years and eight months in prison, with a large amount of custody credit.
After review of the entire record on appeal, we are satisfied that appellant's attorney has fully complied with her responsibilities, and no arguable issues exist. (Smith v. Robbins (2000) 528 U.S. 259; Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d at p. 441.)
