P. v. Allen
Michael Legrand Allen appeals from the judgment entered following a jury trial resulting in his conviction of being a felon in possession of a firearm (Pen. Code, 12021, subd. (a)).[1] In the same proceedings, the jury acquitted him of a charge of attempted murder and the jury deadlocked six-to-six on two charges of felonious assault. At that point, appellant agreed to a plea bargain. The prosecutor proposed that appellant would be sentenced to a four-year prison term for possessing the firearm, consisting of a doubled, two-year middle term as appellant had a 1997 conviction of discharging a firearm in a grossly negligent manner ( 246.3), a serious felony within the meaning of the three strikes law (No. BA158728). ( 667, subds. (b)-(i), 1170.12.) If appellant accepted that term of imprisonment, the prosecutor would dismiss the remaining charges and enhancements. Appellant agreed, and the trial court then sentenced him, as promised, to the four-year prison term. The remaining counts and enhancements were dismissed.
Court have examined the entire record and are satisfied that appellants attorney has fully complied with her responsibilities and that no arguable issues exist. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, 441.) The judgment is affirmed.
