Appellant.

      A jury convicted defendant, Hector Manuel Aguilar, also known as Tomas
Melendez Sanchez, of carrying concealed upon his person a dirk or dagger in violation of
Penal Code section 21310. Defendant was sentenced to 365 days in the county jail.
      Defendant has requested that we independently review the record of the trial
court’s in camera hearing for review of peace officer personnel records. (People v. Mooc
(2001) 26 Cal. 4th 1216, 1228-1232; Pitchess v. Superior Court (1974) 11 Cal. 3d 531,
535.) On November 8, 2013, defendant filed a peace officer personnel record disclosure
motion. The motion sought all misconduct complaints against the arresting officer. On
December 17, 2013, the trial court conducted an in camera hearing and found there were
no discloseable materials. We have reviewed the transcript of the in camera hearing. No
abuse of discretion occurred. (People v. Myles (2012) 53 Cal. 4th 1181, 1209; People v.
Hughes (2002) 27 Cal. 4th 287, 330.)
      The judgment is affirmed.
