In re A.S. CA4/2

I.

INTRODUCTION

Defendant and appellant A.S. (minor) admitted to misdemeanor resisting a peace

officer (Pen. Code, § 148, subd. (a)(1); count 2). In return, the remaining allegation of

possession of a firearm by a minor (Pen. Code, § 29610; count 1) was dismissed. Minor

was thereafter declared a ward of the court, placed on formal probation in the custody of

his parents on various terms and conditions of probation, and ordered to pay victim

restitution jointly and severely with his coparticipants. Minor appeals from an order after

judgment. Counsel has filed a brief under the authority of People v. Wende (1979)

Cal.3d 436 and Anders v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 738, requesting this court to

conduct an independent review of the record. In addition, minor has had an opportunity

to file a supplemental brief with this court and has not done so. Based on our

independent review of the record, we find no error and affirm the judgment.
