P. v. Jackson CA3
Defendant Chris Andrew Jackson pleaded no contest to animal cruelty and threatening a victim or witness because of assistance in prosecution, and was placed on formal probation for five years. (Pen. Code, §§ 597, subd. (a), 140.) After violating probation multiple times, the court finally revoked probation and sentenced defendant to an aggregate term of three years eight months in prison.
Appointed counsel filed an opening brief that sets forth the facts of the case and asks this court to review the record and determine whether there are any arguable issues on appeal. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 (Wende).) After examining the record, we conclude the trial court erred in orally pronouncing restitution fines pursuant to sections 1202.4 and 1202.45, but that the abstract of judgment already reflects the proper statutory restitution fine amounts. We shall therefore modify the judgment to include the proper restitution fines, and affirm the judgment as modified.
