IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA



SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT



DIVISION SIX



THE PEOPLE,



Plaintiff and Respondent,



v.



CHARLES ANTHONY TORRENCE,



Defendant and Appellant.



2d Crim. No. B209738



(Super. Ct. No. 2008002054)



(Ventura County)



Charles Anthony Torrence appeals an order of probation following his conviction by jury trial of misdemeanor vandalism. (Pen. Code,  594, subd. (b)(2)(A).)[1]



An amended information charged Torrence with making criminal threats and personally using a firearm during commission of the crime; misdemeanor brandishing of a firearm; and misdemeanor vandalism. ( 422, 12022.5, subd. (a), 417, subd. (a)(2), 594, subd. (b)(2)(A).) The jury acquitted Torrence of making criminal threats, convicted him of misdemeanor vandalism, and could not agree upon the charge of misdemeanor brandishing. The trial court suspended imposition of sentence and placed Torrence on 36 months probation, with terms and conditions including confinement in county jail for 48 days and payment of fees and fines. The court awarded Torrence 48 days of presentence custody credit and deemed the jail sentence served. It dismissed the charge of misdemeanor brandishing a weapon in the interest of justice.



We appointed counsel to represent Torrence in this appeal. After counsel's examination of the record, he filed an opening brief raising no issues.



On November 21, 2008, we advised Torrence that he had 30 days within which to personally submit any contentions or issues that he wished to raise on appeal. We have not received a response.



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



The judgment is affirmed.



NOT TO BE PUBLISHED.
