P. v. Arlington
Defendant is a state prisoner who was involuntarily committed as a mentally disordered offender (MDO) pursuant to Penal Code section 2960.[1] He appeals from a judgment after a bench trial extending his commitment to the state mental hospital pursuant to section 2970. His counsel has raised no issues and asks this court for an independent review of the record to determine whether there are any issues that would, if resolved favorably to defendant, result in reversal or modification of the judgment. (People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal. 4th 106; People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 (Wende); see Smith v. Robbins (2000) 528 U.S. 259.) Upon independent review of the record, Court conclude that no arguable issues are presented for review, and affirm the judgment.
