FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND

1. Facts

. 2

On October 30, 2012, Los Angeles County d eputy s heriffs responded to a call
reporting a grand theft. When the deputies arrived at the location, they observed King
“pushing some tire s on a street.” The deputies detained King then found additional tires,
a jack and other equipment in a vacant lot. The tires and other merchandise were
determined to have been taken from the KG Grand American Tire Company and, after
King was placed unde r arrest, the tires and other items were returned to the company.

2. Procedural history

. In a felony complaint filed on November 1, 2012, King was charged with one
count of petty theft with three priors in violation of section 666, subdivision (a). It was alleged King, “who did unlawfully and in violation of . . . section 484[, subdivision] (a),

. . . take and carry away the personal property of KJ Grand American Tires ” had also
previously been convicted of and served prison terms for a burglary committ ed in 2003 , a petty theft with a prior committed in 2000 and a petty theft with a prior committed

in1994. It was further alleged King had suffered two prior convictions for the serious
felony of residential burglary within the meaning of the Three Strikes law (§§ 667,

subds. (b)

- (i), 1170.12, subds. (a)

- (d)) and previously had been convicted of four counts
of burglary and two counts of petty theft with a prior for which he served prison terms
within the meaning of section 667.5, subdivision (b). Finally, it was alleged that any

sentence imposed in the present matter was to be served in state prison pursuant to

section 1170, subdivision (h)(3).
At proceedings held on November 1, 2012, counsel for King indicated King
wished to accept the People’s offer. Ki ng would, under the terms of the proposed
disposition, plead no contest to count 1, the petty theft with three priors, and admit a
“strike prior,” a conviction for the serious felony of burglary. In exchange for his plea,
King would be sentenced to a tota l term of 32 months in state prison.
After King waived his right to a preliminary hearing, his right to a jury or court
trial, his right to subpoena witnesses in his defense at no cost to him , his right to testify

on his own behalf and his right to remain silent, he pled no contest to “the charge of petty
theft, with three prior convictions ” and admitted he had been convicted of a residential
burglary in San Fernando on May 1, 2003. 3 The trial court accepted the plea and

admission s and found them “to be f ree, voluntary, knowing and intelligent.” The court
then indicated King had understood “the consequences of his plea and the waiver of his
rights.”
At the same proceedings, the trial court denied King a grant of probation and

sentenced him to “the Depart ment of Corrections for the low term of 16 months .” As
King had admitted having a prior conviction which amounted to a strike within the
meaning of the Three Strikes law, the trial court doubled the term to 32 months. The
court then awarded King present ence custody credit for three days actually served and
three days of conduct credit, or six days.
The court imposed a $720 restitution fine (§ 1202.4, subd. (b)), a s tayed $720
parole revocation restitution fine (§ 1202.45), a $40 court operations assessm ent
(§ 1465.8, subd. (a) (1) ), a $30 conviction assessment (Gov. Code, § 70373) , a $10 crime
prevention fine (§ 1202.5), a $29 penalty assessment and a $2 “criminal surcharge.”

3 King also admitted he had been convicted of a second count of residential burglary on May 1, 2003 and one count of petty theft with a prior on October 25, 2000.4

King filed a timely notice of appeal on December 31, 2012. King also filed a

r equest for a certificate of probable cause in which he asserted he should have been
charged with attempted petty theft with priors. On January 4, 2013, the trial court denied
King’s request for a certificate

. CONTENTIONS

After examination of the record, appointed appellate counsel filed an opening brief
which raised no issues and requested this court to conduct an independent review of the

record.
By notice filed July 31, 2013, the clerk of this court advised King to submit within
30 days any contentions , grounds of appeal or arguments he wished this court to consider.
No response has been received to date.
