INTRODUCTION

Defendant Udon Lertjanthuk appeals from the denial of his petition for recall and 

resentencing under Proposition 47, the Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act. We 

affirm.

PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND

By amended information filed on November 18, 2003, defendant was charged 

with two counts of sale of a controlled substance (Health & Safety Code, § 11379, 

subd. (a); counts 1 and 2)1, one count of sale, transportation or offer to sell a controlled 

substance (§ 11352, subd. (a); count 3), and one count of possession of a controlled 

substance (§ 11377, subd. (a); count 4). Pursuant to a negotiated disposition, defendant 

pled no contest to counts 2 and 3. The court suspended imposition of sentences on both 

counts and placed defendant on formal probation for three years. The court required 

defendant to serve 60 days in county jail. The court dismissed the remaining counts.

On July 10, 2015, defendant in propria persona filed a petition to recall his 

felony sentence on count 2 and resentence him as a misdemeanant under Proposition 47. 

The court held a hearing on August 11, 2015, and found as a matter of law that neither 

of defendant’s convictions is eligible for resentencing under Proposition 47. Defendant 

timely appeals.

DISCUSSION

On December 24, 2015, defendant’s appellate counsel filed a brief in which he 

raised no issues and asked us to review the record independently. (People v. Wende

(1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.) On the court’s next business day, we notified defendant that his 

counsel had failed to find any arguable issues and that he had 30 days to submit by brief 

or letter any arguments he wished this court to consider. We have not received 

a response.

We have examined the entire record and are satisfied appellate counsel has fully 

complied with his responsibilities and no arguable issues exist in the appeal before us.
