P. v. Schoop CA1/4
Appellant Michael Schoop appeals from a 16-year state prison sentence imposed following his plea of no contest to sodomy by means of force or violence in violation of Penal Code section 286, subdivision (c) and his admissions that the offenses occurred on separate occasions within the meaning of Penal Code section 667.6, subdivisions (c) and (d).
Schoop’s counsel filed an opening brief in which no issues are raised, and asks this court for an independent review of the record as required by People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 (Wende). Counsel declared Schoop was notified that no issues were being raised by counsel on appeal, and that an independent review under Wende was being requested instead. Schoop also was advised of his right to personally file a supplemental brief raising any issues he chooses to bring to this court’s attention. No supplemental brief has been filed by Schoop personally.
