P. v. Rodriguez CA2/5
Defendant Gabriel Rodriguez pled no contest to heroin possession for sale in violation of Health and Safety Code section 11351. The trial court placed defendant on three years’ formal probation. Defendant subsequently filed a petition to withdraw his plea for failure to advise of immigration consequences as required by Penal Code section 1016.5. The trial court denied the motion. This appeal followed.
Defendant’s appointed counsel filed an opening brief in accordance with People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 requesting this court to conduct an independent review of the record to determine if there are any arguable issues. On July 26, 2017, we gave notice to defendant that counsel had failed to find any arguable issues and defendant had 30 days within which to submit by brief or letter any grounds of appeal, contentions, or arguments he wished this court to consider. Defendant did not file a brief or letter. We affirm.
