P. v. Medina CA4/3
Defendant Nazario Martin Medina appeals from a resentencing order in which the court reduced a miscalculated state prison term by one year. The new sentence reduced the miscalculated term of 14 years to the agreed term of 13 years under defendant’s plea agreement. In view of the obvious fact that defendant benefitted from the resentencing order, and that his newly calculated sentence exactly matched the state prison term agreed upon under his plea agreement, it is not surprising that defendant’s appointed counsel filed a brief under the procedures prescribed by People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436. Counsel did not argue against defendant, but advised the court he was unable to find an issue to argue on defendant’s behalf. Defendant was given the opportunity to file written argument on his own behalf, but he has not done so.
We have examined the entire record but have not found an arguable appellate issue. Accordingly, we affirm the new sentence.
