_________________________________
A jury convicted Richard Urquiza of second degree robbery based upon an October 3, 2007 incident in which he approached Mauricio Alas as he sat in a truck in a parking lot at night. Appellant tapped on the window with a gun, demanded money, and repeatedly struck Alas on the head with the gun until Alas dropped his wallet and mobile phone. Appellants accomplice grabbed the wallet and phone and the men fled. The jury acquitted appellant of an aggravated assault charge and found that firearm-use allegations were not true. The trial court sentenced appellant to three years in prison.
Appellant filed a timely appeal. We appointed counsel to represent appellant on appeal. After examination of the record, counsel filed an opening brief raising no issues and asking this court to independently review the record. On November 6, 2008, we advised appellant he had 30 days within which to personally submit any contentions or issues he wished us to consider. To date, we have received no response.
We have examined the entire record and are satisfied that appellants counsel has fully complied with his responsibilities and that no arguable issues exist. (People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, 109-110; Peoplev. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, 441.)
