OPINION






APPEAL from
the Superior Court of href="http://www.adrservices.org/neutrals/frederick-mandabach.php">Riverside
County. Jean P.
Leonard, Judge.

Affirmed.

Patricia M.
Ihara, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant.

No
appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent.

Cruz
Garduno Gonzalez was charged with one count of lewd and lascivious acts on a
child under the age of 14 (Pen. Code, § 288, subd. (a))href="#_ftn1" name="_ftnref1" title="">[1],
two counts of oral copulation or sexual penetration by a person 18 years or
older with a child under the age of 10 (§ 288.7, subdivision (b)), and one
count of sexual intercourse or sodomy by a person 18 years or older with a
child under the age of 10 (§ 288.7, subd. (a)).

Pursuant to
a plea bargain, defendant pleaded guilty to two counts of oral copulation or
sexual penetration on a child under the age of 10. (§ 288.7, subd. (b).) He agreed to a sentence of 30 years to life,
consisting of two consecutive terms of 15 years to life. The court found a factual basis for the plea
and imposed the agreed-upon sentence, including appropriate credits, and
dismissed the remaining counts.

Defendant filed a timely href="http://www.mcmillanlaw.com/">notice of appeal from the sentence or
other matters occurring after the plea.
We appointed counsel to represent defendant on appeal. After examination of the record, counsel
filed an opening brief raising no
issues and asking this court to independently
review
the record. We offered
defendant the opportunity to file any supplemental brief he deemed necessary. Defendant did not file a supplemental
brief.

We have examined the entire record and
have found no sentencing error nor any other post-plea error. We are satisfied that defendant’s attorney
has fully complied with her responsibilities and that no href="http://www.fearnotlaw.com/">arguable issues exist.href="#_ftn2" name="_ftnref2" title="">[2] (People
v. Kelly
(2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, 109–110; People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, 441.)
