P. v. Mallard CA4/1
This is the second appellate proceeding arising from the same order issued by the superior court. After the order at issue here was entered by the trial court, Kevin Mallard filed a notice of appeal on November 2, 2016. On November 18, 2016, Mallard also filed a petition for writ of habeas corpus in case D071345. Thereafter this court issued an order to show cause why the relief should not be granted in the habeas proceeding.
On January 12, 2017, Mallard filed his opening brief on appeal. On January 27, 2017, this court issued a published opinion in the habeas corpus proceeding in which the court denied the petition and addressed all the grounds for relief now raised in the current appeal. (In re Mallard (2017) 7 Cal.App.5th 1220 (Mallard).) We have granted the respondent's request to take judicial notice of the file in Mallard.
