IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT
DIVISION SIX
THE PEOPLE, 2d Crim. No. B319194
(Super. Ct. No. 2021031134)
Plaintiff and Respondent, (Ventura County)
v.
ROBERT THOMAS RAY,
Defendant and Appellant.
Robert Thomas Ray appeals from the judgment entered
after he pled guilty to inflicting corporal injury on his girlfriend.
(Pen. Code, § 273.5, subd. (a).) His notice of appeal asserts
sentencing error and does not affect the validity of the plea.
(Pen. Code, § 1237.5; Cal. Rules of Court, rule 8.304, subd. (b).)
We appointed counsel to represent appellant in this appeal.
After an examination of the record, counsel filed an opening brief
that raises no arguable issues. On June 9, 2022, we notified
appellant by mail that he had 30 days within which to personally
submit any contentions or issues he wished us to consider. The
30 days have since passed, and appellant has not presented any
contentions or issues for our consideration.
In December 2021, during a domestic dispute, appellant
grabbed his girlfriend by the throat with both hands and threw
her to the ground. Appellant pled guilty to the inflicting injury
charge and was sentenced to two years in state prison, with
presentence credits of 100 days.
We have reviewed the entire record and are satisfied that
appellant’s attorney fully complied with his responsibilities and
that no arguable issue exists. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d
436.)
