IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA

THE PEOPLE,

Plaintiff and Respondent,

v.
LISA MARIE BELYEW,

Defendant and Appellant. C094617

(Super. Ct. No. 21CF02211)

Appointed counsel for defendant Lisa Marie Belyew asked this court to review the

record and determine whether there are any arguable issues on appeal. ( People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal. 3d 436 ( Wende ).) Defendant subsequently filed a supplemental brief contending that the imposition of sentence for her prior strike offense pursuant to Penal

Code section 1170.12 1 was unconstitutional and raising issues relating to the validity of

her plea and the judgment

. After r eviewing the record and defendant’s supplemental

arguments, we have found no merit in defendant’s contentions and no arguable error that would result in a disposition more favorable to defendant . W e will affirm the judgment.

I While defendant was incarcerated in the Butte County Jail, she threw a milk carton containing urine and fecal matter at a deputy sheriff. Defendant pleaded no contest to gassing and the parties stipulated to a four

- year sentence to be served concurrent wi th the

sentence defendant was serving in Colusa County Superior C ourt case No. 16CF06270 (No. 6270 )

. Defendant also agreed to withdraw her request for pretrial mental health

diversion and not seek mental health diversion in case No. 6270. T he trial court

sentenced defendant to four years in state prison in accordance with the plea agreement

. There were no custody credits because defendant was already in custody in case No.

6270 and this sentence was to run concurrent with her sentence

. Defendant was adv ised and agreed that she would not receive custody credits in this matter in her plea
agreement. The trial court ordered defendant to pay a conviction assessment of $30 (Gov. Code, § 70373), a court operations assessment of $40 (§ 1465.8), and a restituti on fine of $300 (§ 1202.4, subd. (b)), with an additional $300 parole revocation fine
(§ 1202.45). During the sentencing hearing, defendant confirmed she withdrew her request for mental health diversion in accordance with the plea agreement.

Defendant di d not obtain a certificate of probable cause.

II Appointed counsel filed an opening brief setting forth the facts of the case and asking this court to review the record and determine whether there are any arguable issues on appeal. ( Wende, supra
, 25 Cal.3d 436.) Defendant was advised by counsel of the right to file a supplemental brief within 30 days of the date of filing the opening brief. Defendant filed a supplemental brief, arguing (1) remand is required to permit the

trial court to determine whether she is eligible for pretrial mental health diversion
, (2) her

counsel was ineffective in negotiating her plea
, (3) her counsel should have argued the3

charge was a “wobbler” subject to reduction to a misdemeanor
, (4) the trial court failed to

prope rly c alculate her custody credits
, and (5) these cumulative errors warrant reversal.

T o the extent defendant ’s claims assert error s arising prior to the plea, they attack the validity of her plea and h er failure to obtain a certificate of probable cause fo rfeits the

issue s for appellate review. ( People v. LaJocies (1981) 119 Cal.App.3d 947, 956

- 957.) As part of her plea, defendant agreed to withdraw her request for pretrial mental health

diversion and not seek mental health diversion in case No. 6270. Sh e is not permitted to raise a claim of error related to this withdrawal in relation to her plea without a certificate of probable cause.
Defendant’s supplemental brief asserts issues that arose before s he entered h er plea, including the voluntariness of h e r plea and ineffective assistance of counsel on

matters that occurred before h er plea. We cannot review these arguments without a certificate of probable cause. ( People v. Kaanehe (1977) 19 Cal.3d 1, 8

- 9; People v.

Richardson (2007) 156 Cal.App.4th 574, 596.)

To the extent defendant ’ s claims of error relate to issue s arising during the plea and sentencing, the claims are forfeited because she did not raise them in the trial court. ( People v. Garcia (2010) 185 Cal.App.4th 1203, 1218 [failure to timely raise a sentencing issue in the trial court forfeits the issue for appellate review].) Her claim regarding custody credits is forfeited because it was not raised below.
Further, defendant’s claims of i neffective assistance and other challenges based on matters outside the record must be raised by way of a petition for writ of habeas corpus and not by direct appeal. ( People v. Mendoza Tello (1997) 15 Cal.4th 264, 266

- 267; People v. Williams (2013) 56 Ca l.4th 630, 690

- 691.) Having undertaken an examination of the entire record, we find no arguable error that would result in a disposition more favorable to defendant.
