*           Before Hill, P. J., Levy, J. and Franson, J.
       Appointed counsel for minor D.S. asked this court to review the record to
determine whether there are any arguable issues on appeal. (People v. Wende (1979) 25
Cal.3d 436.) Minor was advised of his right to file a supplemental brief within 30 days of
the date of filing of the opening brief. Minor did not respond. Finding no arguable error
that would result in a disposition more favorable to minor, we affirm.
                                    BACKGROUND
       Beginning in April 2020, three petitions pursuant to Welfare and Institutions Code
section 602 were filed against minor.
       Then, on March 4, 2022, officers stopped minor, who was 17 years old, and
two other males in a vehicle that was speeding and had expired registration. A loaded
weapon with a magazine containing live rounds was found within minor’s reach under
the passenger seat where he was seated. The officers detained minor.
       On March 8, 2022, a subsequent Welfare and Institutions Code section 602
petition was filed alleging felony possession of a firearm (Pen. Code, § 29610) and
misdemeanor possession of live ammunition (Pen. Code, § 29650).
       On May 9, 2022, the juvenile court found the allegations true at a contested
jurisdictional hearing.
       On June 13, 2022, the juvenile court ordered defendant to continue as a ward on
probation in his sister’s custody with various terms and conditions.
       On August 11, 2022, minor filed a notice of appeal.
                                        DISCUSSION
       Having undertaken an examination of the entire record, we find no evidence of
any arguable error that would result in a disposition more favorable to minor.
                                        DISPOSITION
       The juvenile court’s findings and orders are affirmed.

                                            2.
