v.
THOMAS JAMES GARDNER,
Defendant and Appellant.
Thomas James Gardner appeals following an open plea to five counts of first degree residential burglary (Pen. Code, § 459).1 Appellant contends “the trial court erred when it denied [his] request for the mental health diversion based on the court’s conclusion that [his] mental health did not play a significant role in the commission of the offenses.” We conclude substantial evidence supports the trial court’s conclusion and will affirm.
