v.

JOE GUTIERREZ,

     Defendant and Appellant.

                   Joe Gutierrez appeals from the judgment after a jury convicted him of first
degree burglary and receiving stolen property. (Pen. Code, §§ 459 & 496.)1 Appellant
admitted two prior strike convictions (§§ 667, subds. (b)-(i), 1170.12, subds. (a)-(d)), and
one prior serious felony conviction. (§ 667, subd. (a).) The trial court sentenced him as a
third strike offender to an aggregate term of 30 years to life in state prison.
                   On December 30, 2010, appellant and an accomplice broke into the victims'
home and took their property. They put the property in appellant’s car and drove away.
                   We appointed counsel to represent appellant in this appeal. After counsel's
examination of the record, he filed an opening brief in which no issues were raised.

         1 All further statutory references are to the Penal Code.
             We advised appellant that he had 30 days within which to personally
submit any contentions or issues he wished us to consider. No response has been
received.
             We have reviewed the available record, including sealed documents
presented during proceedings conducted pursuant to Pitchess v. Superior Court (1974) 11
Cal. 3d 531. We are satisfied that appellant's attorney has fully complied with his
responsibilities and that no arguable issues exist. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal. 3d
436, 443; People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal. 4th 106, 125, 126.)
             The judgment is affirmed.
             NOT TO BE PUBLISHED.
