P. v. Vargas CA6
Defendant Benjamin Trujillo Vargas appeals from the judgment entered following his admission that he violated probation. Appointed counsel filed an opening brief summarizing the case but raising no issues. Counsel notified defendant of his right to file a supplemental brief on his own behalf and defendant has not done so. Having reviewed the entire record, we see no arguable appellate issue. We therefore briefly describe the proceedings and then affirm the judgment. (See People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, 440–441; People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, 110.)
Defendant pleaded no contest in 2018 to possessing a controlled substance for sale (Health & Saf. Code, § 11351) and possessing a short-barreled rifle or shotgun (Pen. Code, § 33215). He was granted probation with conditions including 180 days in county jail. In February 2020, the District Attorney alleged defendant violated his probation by smoking marijuana in a public place (in violation of Health and Saf. Code, § 11362.
