Plaintiff and Respondent, (Santa Barbara County)
v.
MICHAEL JOHN STINCHFIELD
Defendant and Appellant.
Michael John Stinchfield appeals a judgment following his no contest plea
to two counts of assault with a deadly weapon (Pen. Code, § 245, subd. (a)(1)), false
imprisonment by threat/violence (§§ 236, 237), and criminal threats (§ 422). He also
admitted a great bodily injury allegation relating to one of the assaults (§ 12022.7, subd.
(a)).
We appointed counsel to represent him on this appeal. After examination
of the record. his counsel filed an opening brief requesting the court to make an
independent review under People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.
On August 22, 2014, we advised appellant that he had 30 days within
which to personally submit any contentions or issues which he wished us to consider.
No response has been received to this date. After examination of the record, we are
satisfied that appellant's attorney has fully complied with his responsibilities and that no
arguable issues exist. (People v. Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d at pp. 441, 443.)
The judgment is affirmed.
