P. v. Johnston CA2/11
Tyler R. Johnston appeals from the denial of his “Application for Reduction to Misdemeanor” pursuant to Penal Code section 1170.18, subdivision (f). His court-appointed counsel has filed a brief raising no legal issues and asking this court to independently review the record pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.
Appellant’s counsel declares that she has thoroughly reviewed the entire record in this appeal and on that basis determined that the filing of a Wende brief is appropriate. Counsel additionally represents she has advised appellant such a brief would be filed in this case, that he may personally file a supplemental brief raising any issues he wishes to call to the court’s attention within 30 days, and that she will send him the record upon request.
