Can a defendant appeal his conviction for assault and assault against a judge's decision not to grant a new trial?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Dison, E064827 (Cal. App. 2016):

Upon defendant's request, this court appointed counsel to represent him. Counsel has filed a brief under the authority of People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 and Anders v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 738, setting forth a statement of the case and one potential arguable issue: whether the court erred in denying defendant's petition for resentencing under Proposition 47. Counsel has also requested this court to undertake a review of the entire record.

We offered defendant an opportunity to file a personal supplemental brief, which he has not done.

Pursuant to the mandate of People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, we have conducted an independent review of the record and find no arguable issues.

The judgment is affirmed.
