People v. Merchant CA4/1

STATEMENT OF FACTS

We set forth a summary of the facts of the offenses in our opinion affirming the convictions. (People v. Merchant, supra, 40 Cal App.5th at pp. 1182–1184.) We will not repeat that summary here.

DISCUSSION

As we have noted, appellate counsel has filed a Wende brief and asks the court to independently review the record for error. To assist the court in its review, and in compliance with Anders v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 738, counsel has identified a possible issue that was considered in evaluating the

2 potential merits of this appeal: Whether the trial court erred in reimposing the 27-year determinate sentence. We have independently reviewed the record for error as required by Wende and Anders. We have not discovered any arguable issues for reversal on appeal. Competent counsel has represented Merchant on this appeal.

DISPOSITION

The judgment is affirmed.
