(Butte)

----

THE PEOPLE,

Plaintiff and Respondent,

v.

GERALD ROEHRICH,

Defendant and Appellant. C096399

(Super. Ct. No. 21CF04974)

Appointed counsel for defendant Gerald Roehrich filed an opening brief that sets

forth the facts of the case and asks this court to review the record and determine whether
there are any arguable issues on appeal. ( People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.)
Finding no arguable errors that would result in a disposition more favorable to defendant,
we will affirm the judgment.2 

### B ACKGROUND

On January 7 , 2022, d efendant resolved the case against him by pleading no

contest to felony grand theft of property from a person (Pen. Code, § 487, subd. (c) ) 1 and
admitting he had suffered a prior strike (§§ 667 , subds. (b)

- (i) , 1170.12 )

. I n exchange

, he

received dismissal of the remaining charge and enhancement

. The stipulated factual
basis for his plea was to be taken from the probation report

. At a hearing on February 17, 2022, defendant was referred for a determination of
his suitability/eligibility for mental health diversion.
At the sentencing hearing on May 19, 2022 , defendant withdrew his request for

mental health diversion

, and t he trial court elected not to strike defendant’s prior strike

and stated that even if it could grant probation, it would not . The court then determined defendant’s prior convictions were numerous (citing 12 felony and two misdemeanor
convictions)

, he had served prior prison sentences, he was on probation when the theft
was committed, and his prior performance on probation was unsatisfactory. 2 The court
weighed th ese aggravating circumstances against defendant’s possible mental health and

substance ab use problems (as well as factors to be considered under § 1170, subd

. (b)(6) )

and found imposition of a lower term would be contrary to the interests of justice.
Instead, the court impose d the upper term of six years (three years doubled because of the

pr ior strike) with credit for 238 actual days, plus 238 conduct days for a total of 476 days’
custody credit.

1 U ndesignated statutory references are to the Penal Code.

2 Defendant did not object that some of these findings failed to comply with amendments constraining the trial court’s ability to determine factors in aggravation (§ 1170, subd. (b)(2)

- (3)) and

, thus

, has forfeited appellate arguments concerning the trial co urt’s noncompliance. ( People v. Scott (1994) 9 Cal.4th 331, 351; People v. Flowers (2022) 81 Cal.App.5th 680, 683

- 684 , review granted Oct. 12, 2022, S276237 .)3

Finally, the trial court imposed a $30 conviction assessment fee (Gov. Code,
§ 70373), a $40 court operations assessment fee (§ 1465.8), a $ 3 00 res titution fine
(§ 1202.4), a suspended $ 3 00 parole revocation restitution fine (§ 1202.45), and a theft
fine (§ 1202.5) plus penalty assessments totaling $39

. D efendant timely appealed and did
not request a certificate of probable cause.



### D ISCUSSION
Appointed counsel filed an opening brief that sets forth the facts and procedural
history of the case and requests this court review the record and determine whether there
are any arguable issues on appeal. ( People v. Wende

, supra , 25 Cal.3d 43 6.) Defendant
was advised by counsel of his right to file a supplemental brief wi thin 30 days from the
date the opening brief was filed. More than 30 days have elapsed, and defendant has not
filed a supplemental brief.
Having undertaken an examination of the entire record pursuant to Wende , we f ind
no arguable errors that are favorable to defendant . Accordingly, we will affirm the
judgment.
