    THE PEOPLE,                                                                                C097380

                    Plaintiff and Respondent,                                    (Super. Ct. No. 16FE004174)

           v.

    JOSE QUINONEZ,

                    Defendant and Appellant.

         Defendant Jose Quinonez appeals the trial court’s denial of his petition for
resentencing under Penal Code former section 1170.95.1 Counsel filed a brief raising no
arguable issues under People v. Delgadillo (2022) 14 Cal.5th 216 or People v. Wende
(1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 and requesting that we exercise our discretion to review the entire
record for arguable issues on appeal.

1      Undesignated statutory references are to the Penal Code. Effective June 30, 2022,
the Legislature renumbered former section 1170.95 to section 1172.6. (Stats. 2022, ch.
58, § 10.) There were no substantive changes to the statute.

                                                             1
       On February 14, 2023, we notified defendant that (1) counsel had filed a brief
indicating no arguable issues had been identified by counsel; (2) as a case arising from an
order denying postconviction relief, defendant was not entitled to counsel or to an
independent review of the record; and (3) in accordance with the procedures set forth in
Delgadillo, defendant had 30 days in which to file a supplemental brief or letter raising
any argument he wanted this court to consider. In addition, we notified defendant if we
did not receive a letter or brief within that 30-day period, the court may dismiss the
appeal as abandoned. More than 30 days have elapsed and we have received no
communication from defendant.
       We consider defendant’s appeal abandoned and order the appeal dismissed.
(People v. Delgadillo, supra, 14 Cal.5th at p. 232.)
                                      DISPOSITION
       The appeal is dismissed.

                                                        KRAUSE                , J.
