P. v. Vaughn
Sally Ann Vaughn appeals her conviction, by plea of no contest, of one count of assault with a deadly weapon (Pen. Code, 245, subd. (a)(1)) and one felony count of hit and run. (Veh. Code, 20001, subd. (a).) The charges arise from an incident in which appellant intentionally hit a bicyclist with her automobile. While the criminal charges were pending, appellant was twice declared incompetent and transferred to Patton State Hospital for mental health treatment. After her competency was restored the second time, the trial court dismissed the hit and run count on respondent's motion, suspended imposition of sentence, placed appellant on probation and released her from custody subject to various conditions including revocation of her driving privilege. Court have reviewed the entire record and are satisfied that appellant'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.
