People v. Velarde CA4/1

DISCUSSION

As we have previously noted, appellate counsel has filed a brief pursuant to

Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d 436, indicating she is unable to find any arguable issues for

reversal on appeal and asks this court to review the record for error as mandated by

Wende. As required by Anders, supra, 386 U.S. 738, counsel has set forth three possible,

but not arguable issues:

1. Was the waiver of the right to appeal valid?

2. Is Velarde's guilty plea constitutionally valid?

3. Was there a sufficient factual basis for the plea?

We have reviewed the entire record as mandated by Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d 436,

and Anders, supra, 386 U.S. 738, and have not discovered any reasonably arguable issues

for reversal on appeal. Competent counsel has represented Velarde on this appeal.
