P. v. Knight CA5
In 2011, appellant Tenace Demond Knight was convicted of possession of a weapon in a custodial institution (Pen. Code, § 4502, subd. (a)) and sentenced to the third strike term of 25 years to life.
In 2015, the superior court denied Knight’s petition for resentencing, filed pursuant to Proposition 36 and section 1170.126, and found he was statutorily ineligible for relief. This court affirmed the order on appeal.
In 2020, Knight filed another petition for resentencing under section 1170.126, and it was, again, denied. On appeal, Knight’s appellate counsel has filed a brief which summarizes the facts with citations to the record, raises no issues, and asks this court to independently review the record. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.) We affirm.
