Defendant and Appellant. D0 78914

(Super. Ct. No. SCD279564 )

APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of San Diego County, Theodore M. Weathers, Judge. Affirmed

. Jill Kent , under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant. No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent. In 2019, Mark Salzman was charged with a number of offenses arising from alleged drunk driving causing injury. In March 2019, a preliminary hearing was held and Salzman was bound over for trial. Thereafter, a number of continuances were granted, over Salzman’s objections, based on
court closures due to the COVID

- 19 pandemic.2

In May 2020, the court found good cause to continue the trial date because of the pandemic. The court granted another continuance in July
2020. In August 2020, Salzman brought a motion to dismiss for denial of a speedy trial. The court held a hearing and considered the various emergency orders that had been issued by the Chief Justice because of issues arising from the pandemic. The court denie d the motion to dismiss under Penal Code section 1382. In January 2021, Salzman pleaded guilty to one count of driving under the influence of alcohol causing injury (Veh. Code, § 23153, subd. (a)) and admitted personally inflicting great bodily injury (P en. Code, § 1192.7 , subd. ( c ) (8) ). Salzman also admitted a strike prior (Pen. Code, § 667,
subds. (b)

- (i))

. The court sentenced Salzman to the midterm of two years, doubled because of the strike prior. Based upon the accumulated custody credits, the cou rt order ed Salzman’s immediate release from custody and ordered him to report to parole.

25 C al.3d 436 ( Wende ) indicating that counsel has not been able to identify any arguable issues for reversal on appeal. Counsel asks the court to review the record for error as mandated by Wende. We offered Salzman the opportunity to file his own brief on ap peal, but he has not responded

Penal Code section 1382.
We hav e 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 Salzman on this appeal. DISPOSITION The judgment is affirmed.
