P. v. Wilson
Bradley Terrance Wilson appeals from a judgment extending his commitment as a mentally disordered offender (MDO) pursuant to Penal Code section 2970.[1] Once again,[2] his attorney has filed a brief seeking our independent review of the record, pursuant to Conservatorship of Ben C. (2007) 40 Cal.4th 529 (Ben C.); People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 (Wende) (see also Anders v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 738), in order to determine whether there is any arguable issue on appeal. Appellant's counsel represented in the opening brief that she wrote to appellant and advised him of the filing of a Ben C. brief, and his opportunity to file his own supplemental brief within 30 days after the filing of the opening brief. We have not received a supplemental brief from appellant.
Because Wende review is still not available under these circumstances, we will dismiss the appeal.
