P. v. Ruiz
Defendant, Rusbel Razo Ruiz appeals from a judgment entered after a jury found him guilty of attempted robbery (Pen. Code, 664/211), and found a weapons allegation to be true. (Pen. Code, 12022, subd. (b)(1).) Based on this conviction, defendants probation was revoked in another case arising from a 2002 conviction for possession of a controlled substance. (Health & Saf. Code 11350.) After the trial court denied the defendants motion for new trial based on ineffective assistance of an interpreter, the court sentenced defendant to the midterm on both cases for a total of three years for the burglary and weapons charges and eight months for the possession charge, to be served consecutively. The defendant filed a timely notice of appeal. We appointed counsel to represent defendant in this court. Appellate counsel subsequently filed an amended notice of appeal. Appointed counsel filed an opening brief which states the case and the facts but raises no specific issues. We notified defendant of his right to submit written argument in his own behalf within 30 days. That period has elapsed and we have received no written argument from defendant. Pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, we have reviewed the entire record and have concluded that there is no arguable issue on appeal. The judgment is affirmed.
