DISCUSSION

We appointed counsel to represent Young in this appeal. After reviewing the record, counsel filed a brief raising no issues. Appointed counsel advised Young on June 27, 2022 that he could personally submit any contentions or issues he wanted the court to consider. We have received no response. A criminal defendant who appeals following a plea of no contest or guilty without a certificate of probable cause can only challenge the denial of a motion to suppress evidence or assert grounds arising after the entry of the plea that do not affect the plea’s validity. (Cal. Rules of Court, rule 8.304(b).) We have examined the record and are satisfied appellate counsel for Young has complied with counsel’s responsibilities and there are no arguable issues. (Smith v. Robbins (2000) 528 U.S. 259, 277- 284; People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, 118-119; People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, 441-442.)
