Opinion

Irion, J.

DISCUSSION

Appointed appellate counsel has filed a brief summarizing the facts and

proceedings in the trial court. Counsel presented no argument for reversal but invited this

court to review the record for error in accordance with Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d 436.

Counsel has identified the following issues that "might arguably support the

appeal" (Anders, supra, 386 U.S. at p. 744): "Did the court abuse its discretion by

sentencing appellant to a four-year prison term instead of a two-year term?"

After we received counsel's brief, we gave Sutton an opportunity to file a

supplemental brief, but Sutton did not respond.

A review of the record pursuant to Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d 436, and Anders,

supra, 386 U.S. 738, including the issue suggested by counsel, has disclosed no

reasonably arguable appellate issue. Sutton has been adequately represented by counsel

on this appeal.
