P. v. Laverty
Defendant filed a notice of appeal from a judgment of conviction after he pled guilty to two felony counts of possessing heroin and methamphetamine for sale. A certificate of probable cause was denied by the trial court. (See Pen. Code, 1237.5; Cal. Rules of Court, rule 8.304(b).) We appointed counsel to represent Laverty on appeal. Counsel filed a brief that set forth the facts. Counsel did not argue against Laverty, but advised the court no issues were found to argue on his behalf and asks that we review the record for error as mandated by People v. Wende(1979) 25 Cal.3d 436. Laverty was given 30 days to file written argument on his own behalf. That period has passed, and Court have received no communication from Laverty. Court dismiss the appeal.
