P. v. Garcia CA2/3
Defendant Alfred Anthony Garcia appeals from an order requiring him to submit to involuntary administration of antipsychotic medication pursuant to Penal Code section 1370, subdivision (a)(2)(B)(i)(I). On appeal, his appellate counsel has filed an opening brief raising no arguable issues. Counsel asks this court to exercise our discretion to independently review the record (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 (Wende)) or “at a minimum, conduct the level of review prescribed for [Lanterman-Petris-Short Act] conservatees” in accordance with Conservatorship of Ben C. (2007) 40 Cal.4th 529 (Ben C.). We provided defendant with a copy of the brief and informed him of his right to file a supplemental brief, but he has not done so.
