P. v. Wilcox
Defendant Paul Robert Wilcox was convicted by a jury of deterring an executive officer (Pen. Code, § 69).[1] The jury deadlocked on a second charge of arson (§ 451, subd. (c)) and found Wilcox not guilty on a charge of attempt to burn (§ 455). The trial court dismissed the arson charge after the prosecution indicated it would not proceed with a retrial. On January 26, 2012, Wilcox was sentenced to 270 days in county jail and five years probation, with custody credits of 93 days. The court imposed a $200 restitution fine, a $40 court security fee and a $30 court facilities fee. The court also imposed and stayed a $200 probation revocation fine. Wilcox timely appealed.
On July 5, 2012, the court terminated Wilcox’s probation for absconding.
We appointed counsel to represent Wilcox in this court. Appointed counsel filed an opening brief which states the case and the facts, but raises no specific issues. We notified Wilcox of his right to submit written argument in his own behalf within 30 days. That period has elapsed, and we have received no written argument from Wilcox.
