FACTS
On April 24, 2012, defendant entered a garage attached to a residence belonging to
and occupied by John Gouveia. Gouveia had just returned from shopping and had left the
garage door open while he unloaded the car. While Gouveia was inside the house,
defendant entered the garage and took a purple radio and a box of trash bags. A neighbor
saw defendant enter and leave the garage and alerted Gouveia. Gouveia and his neighbor
walked in the direction defendant had gone and saw him a few houses down the street.
The two men stopped him, and Gouveia recognized the items as his. Defendant
attempted to run, but the two men again stopped him and called the police.

supplemental brief he deemed necessary, but he did not do so.

has fully complied with her responsibilities and that no arguable issues exist. (People v.
