People v. Boyd CA4/1

STATEMENT OF FACTS

In his change of plea, Boyd admitted he “attempted to take a vehicle from the immediate presence of [five] people with the intent to temporarily deprive them of the vehicle.”

DISCUSSION

As we have noted, appellate counsel has filed a Wende brief and asks the court to review the record for error. To assist the court in its review, and in compliance with Anders v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 738 (Anders), counsel has identified the following possible issues which were considered in evaluating the potential merits of this appeal.

2 1. Whether Boyd’s involuntary lack of personal presence at the preliminary hearing can be challenged on appeal. 2. Whether a passenger in a car be a lawful victim of an attempted carjacking. We have reviewed the entire record as required by Wende and Anders. We have not discovered any arguable issues for reversal on appeal. Competent counsel has represented Boyd on this appeal.

DISPOSITION

The judgment is affirmed.
