P. v. Perez
On December 20, 2006, Pablo Loya and some friends were in the front yard of a house in Sanger when Roosevelt Maldonado and Freddie Mercado approached the group yelling, Sureo, and asking them, Whats up mutts? Loya and one of his friends responded that they did not bang. Two males started fighting and were soon joined by others. During the ensuing melee, appellant, Jesus Perez, who was then 16 years old, stabbed Loya in the side of the chest. Loya fell to the ground and was kicked in the head by Maldonado and Mercado. Loya died three days later from a single stab wound to the heart. Perezs appellate counsel has filed a brief which summarizes the facts, with citations to the record, raises no issues, and asks this court to independently review the record. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.) Perez has not responded to this courts invitation to submit additional briefing. The judgment is affirmed.
