IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA

SIXTH APPELLATE DISTRICT

In re JOHN W., A Person Coming

Under the Juvenile Court Law.

THE PEOPLE, H029632

Plaintiff and Respondent, (Santa Clara County

Superior Court

v. No. JV29059)

JOHN W.,

Defendant and Appellant.

_____________________________________/

After a contested jurisdictional hearing, the juvenile court found true an allegation that appellant John W. had committed an assault by means of force likely to produce great bodily injury (Pen. Code, § 245, subd. (a)). Appellant was declared a ward and ordered to serve 120 days on the electronic monitoring program (EMP) and to attend the juvenile court work program for 30 days. He was placed in his parents' custody on probation. Appellant filed a timely notice of appeal.

Appointed appellate counsel has filed an opening brief which states the case and the facts but raises no issues. Appellant was notified of his right to submit written argument on his own behalf but has failed to avail himself of the opportunity. Pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, we have reviewed the entire record and have concluded that there are no arguable issues on appeal.

The juvenile court's order is affirmed.
