P. v. Traylor
Defendant Aevra Shaefona Traylor appeals from a judgment entered after she admitted a probation violation and her probation was revoked. Defendant’s counsel has filed an opening brief in which no issues are raised and asks this court for an independent review of the record as required by People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 (Wende). Counsel has declared that defendant was notified that no issues were being raised by counsel on appeal, and that an independent review under Wende was being requested. We notified defendant of her right to submit a written argument on her own behalf. Defendant has filed a supplemental letter brief arguing that the two-year term in county jail imposed by the trial court was overly harsh, that the judge failed to take her mental health problems into consideration during sentencing, and that she did not intend to violate her probation.[1]
Pursuant to Wende, we reviewed the entire record and found two arguable issues regarding the imposition of a parole revocation restitution fine and a probation revocation restitution fine. We asked both parties to file supplemental letter briefs addressing these issues. We modify the judgment and affirm.
