P. v. Clark
Antwan Clark appeals from the judgment entered after the trial court sentenced him to three years in state prison for a conviction under Health and Safety Code section 11352, subdivision (a), based on a finding that he violated his probation.
We appointed counsel to represent Clark in the matter. After examining the record, counsel filed a Wende brief raising no issues on appeal and requesting that we independently review the record, including the disposition of Clark's motion under Pitchess v. Superior Court (1974) 11 Cal.3d 531 in another case whose facts formed the basis for the probation violation finding. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.) On November 1, 2010, we directed appointed counsel to immediately send the record on this appeal and a copy of the opening brief to Clark and notified Clark that within 30 days from the date of the notice he could submit by brief or by letter any grounds of appeal, contentions or argument he wished us to consider. After an augmented clerk's transcript was filed in the appeal, on February 3, 2011, we sent Clark a copy of the transcript and gave him an additional 30 days to file a brief or letter. We received no response from Clark.
We briefly describe the facts and procedural history of the case, the crime of which Clark was convicted, and the punishment imposed. (People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, 110.)
