IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA

SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT

DIVISION SIX

William Edward Preston May appeals from the judgment (order of commitment) entered following a court trial in which he was determined to be a mentally disordered offender. (MDO; Pen. Code, § 2962 et seq.) He was committed to the California Department of Mental Health for treatment as a condition of his parole. (Pen. Code, § 2966, subd. (c).)

We appointed counsel to represent appellant in this appeal. After examination of the record, counsel filed an opening brief in which no issues were raised.

On May 31, 2006, we advised appellant that he had 30 days within which to personally submit any contentions or issues which he wished us to consider. On July 6, 2006, we received a supplemental brief from appellant arguing, among other things, that his severe mental disorder is in remission.

We have examined the entire record and are satisfied that appellant's attorney has fully complied with his responsibilities and that no arguable issues exist. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, 441.)

The judgment (order of commitment) is affirmed.
