_______________
Defendant and appellant Brandon Rippepoe appeals from the judgment entered following his plea of no contest to seven counts of robbery (Pen. Code, 211) and one count of false imprisonment by violence (Pen. Code, 236) and his admission of an allegation that he used a firearm in the course of one of the robberies. (Pen. Code, 12022.53, subd. (b).) Pursuant to an agreement, he was sentenced to a total of 20 years in state prison. We appointed counsel to represent him on appeal.
After examination of the record, counsel filed an opening brief in which no issues were raised. On or before June 21, 2008, counsel informed appellant that she intended to file such a brief, sent appellant a copy of the brief and the record on appeal, and advised appellant that he could submit a supplemental brief in his own behalf. On July 1, 2008, we advised appellant that he had 30 days in which to submit by brief or letter any argument or contention he wished this court to consider. No response has been received from appellant to date.
We have examined the entire record and are satisfied that appellant's attorney has fully complied with her responsibilities and no arguable issues exist. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, 441.)
The judgment is affirmed.
