The People v. Mourning CA4/1
Opinion
Nares, J.
DISCUSSION
As we have previously noted, appellate counsel has filed a brief indicating he is
unable to identify any argument for reversal and asks this court to review the record for
error as mandated by Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d 436. Pursuant to Anders, supra, 386 U.S.
738, the brief identifies the following possible, but not arguable issues:
1. Whether a claim of ineffective assistance of counsel at a probation violation
hearing is cognizable on appeal when a defendant admits the violation of probation, and
2. Whether Mourning's appeal is moot.
We have reviewed the entire record in accordance with Wende, supra, 25
Cal.3d 436 and Anders, supra, 386 U.S. 738, including the possible issues raised by
3 appellate counsel, and have not found any reasonably arguable appellate issues.
Competent counsel has represented Mourning on appeal.
DISPOSITION
The judgment is affirmed.
