        Judge of the Kings Superior Court, assigned by the Chief Justice pursuant to
article VI, section 6 of the California Constitution.
                                   INTRODUCTION
Case No. MCR028821A
       On July 18, 2007, appellant, Beverly Anne Wagner, waived her constitutional
rights in case No. MCR028821A and entered a guilty plea to one count of possession of
access card information without consent with intent to defraud (Pen. Code, § 484e, subd.
(d), count 2).1 On September 28, 2007, the trial court placed appellant on felony
probation for five years upon various terms and conditions, including that she serve nine
days in jail.2
       On March 6, 2008, appellant admitted an allegation that she violated her probation
and was ordered to serve an additional 90 days in jail and complete an inpatient drug
treatment program. On May 15, 2009, appellant admitted a new violation of probation
and again was sentenced to county jail for 90 days. On November 1, 2010, appellant
admitted a third violation of probation. The trial court ordered appellant’s incarceration
in county jail for 60 days and that she participate in a drug counseling program.
       Appellant admitted a fourth violation of probation on March 3, 2011. On April 1,
2011, the trial court sentenced appellant to prison for a term of three years, suspended
imposition of sentence, ordered appellant to spend 36 days in jail, and placed her in the
Madera County Felony Drug Court Program.
Case No. MCR039557
       On March 3, 2011, appellant waived her constitutional rights and pled guilty to
one count of fraudulently obtaining another’s identity. (§ 530.5, subd. (a), count 3).3 On
1      Unless otherwise designated, all statutory references are to the Penal Code.
2     Between December 1, 2006, and March 31, 2007, appellant used her
grandmother’s ATM card without permission to withdraw funds. The withdrawals were
made in increments between $500 and $800 and totaled over $2,000.
3      On June 30, 2010, appellant took her grandmother’s ATM card and withdrew
$140 from her grandmother’s account without permission.

                                             2
April 1, 2011, the trial court placed appellant on felony probation for five years and
ordered her to serve 90 days in jail consecutive to the time she was to serve in case No.
MCR028821A.
       Appellant admitted violating her probation in both cases on November 10, 2011.
The trial court ordered appellant’s incarceration in jail for 19 days and continued her in
the felony drug court program. On October 12, 2012, appellant admitted a new violation
of probation in both cases. On November 9, 2012, the trial court lifted the stay of
execution on appellant’s sentence of three years and ordered it to be served locally
pursuant to section 1170, subdivision (h)(5)(a). Appellant was granted 276 actual days in
custody and 188 days of conduct credits, for a total of 464 days’ custody credits.
Appellant did not obtain a certificate of probable cause.
       Appellate counsel has filed a brief seeking independent review of the case by this
court pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal. 3d 436 (Wende).
                            APPELLATE COURT REVIEW
       Appellant’s appointed appellate counsel has filed an opening brief that
summarizes the pertinent facts, raises no issues, and requests this court to review the
record independently. (Wende, supra, 25 Cal. 3d 436.) The opening brief also includes
the declaration of appellate counsel indicating that appellant was advised she could file
her own brief with this court. By letter on March 18, 2013, we invited appellant to
submit additional briefing. To date, she has not done so.
       After independent review of the record, we have concluded there are no
reasonably arguable legal or factual issues.
                                     DISPOSITION
       The judgment is affirmed.
