           v.

 KAELEEN BREANNE KOGER,

                    Defendant and Appellant.

         Appointed counsel for defendant Kaeleen Breanne Koger asked this court to
review the record and determine whether there are any arguable issues on appeal.
(People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.) Finding no arguable errors that would result in
a disposition more favorable to Koger, we will affirm the judgment.

                                                             1
                                      BACKGROUND
       In December 2020, the People charged Koger with 10 felonies, including being a
felon in possession of a firearm (Pen. Code, § 29800, subd. (a)) and burglary (Pen. Code,
§ 459/460, subd. (d)).
       In August 2021, Koger pled no contest to being a felon in possession of a firearm
and burglary. In exchange for her plea, the People agreed Koger would serve three years
on probation based on special circumstances. At sentencing, however, the trial court
rejected the plea agreement. Koger moved to withdraw from the plea agreement and the
trial court granted her motion.
       On March 8, 2022, Koger pled no contest to burglary and agreed to a two-year
term in “county prison.” On March 22, 2022, she moved to withdraw from her plea
agreement as she wanted to serve her sentence in state prison. Koger agreed, again, to
plead no contest to being a felon in possession of a firearm and burglary, which would
require her to serve her sentence in state prison. On March 29, 2022, the amended plea
was entered accordingly, and the remaining charges were dismissed.
       The trial court sentenced Koger in accordance with her plea agreement: two years
for being a felon in possession of a firearm, and a concurrent two-year term for burglary.
The trial court ordered Koger to pay direct victim restitution in the amount of $12,953.
       On January 17, 2023, this court granted Koger’s motion to file a notice of appeal
under the constructive filing doctrine. Koger filed her notice of appeal in February 2023
without a certificate of probable cause. Her Wende brief was filed in September 2023,
and this case became fully briefed on October 25, 2023.
                                       DISCUSSION
       Appointed counsel filed an opening brief setting forth the facts of the case and
asking this court to review the record and determine whether there are any arguable
issues on appeal. (People v. Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d 436.) Koger was advised by
counsel of the right to file a supplemental brief within 30 days of the date of filing of the

                                              2
opening brief. More than 30 days have elapsed, and we received no communication from
Koger.
         Having undertaken an examination of the entire record, we find no arguable error
that would result in a disposition more favorable to Koger.
                                      DISPOSITION
         The judgment is affirmed.
