I
INTRODUCTION
On May 18, 2011, the People filed a petition in Riverside County charging minor
and appellant, A. A., with misdemeanor possession of a knife on school grounds under
Penal Code1 section 626.10, subdivision (a). On June 29, 2011, minor admitted the
allegation and was placed on informal probation under Welfare and Institutions Code
section 654.2.
On November 21, 2011, the People filed a second petition charging minor with
misdemeanor possession of a knife on school founds under section 626.10, subdivision
(a), again. On December 7, 2011, minor’s informal probation was revoked and minor
admitted the allegations contained in both petitions. Minor was placed on six months of
formal probation under Welfare and Institutions Code section 725. Moreover, the court
imposed a restitution fine of $100.00.
On January 3, 2013, the People filed a third petition charging minor with
misdemeanor shoplifting under section 490.5. On February 14, 2013, minor, now over
18 years of age, admitted the allegation. The court adjudged minor a ward and then
immediately terminated the wardship.
On February 26, 2013, the People filed a fourth petition charging minor with
felony possession of a stolen vehicle in violation of section 496d, subdivision (a). On
1 All statutory references are to the Penal Code unless otherwise indicated.

March 19, 2013, minor admitted the allegation. The court adjudged minor a ward and
then immediately terminated the wardship.
On October 3, 2013, minor filed a petition for order to seal records under Welfare
and Institutions Code section 781. After a hearing on the petition, the court denied the
petition.
On December 13, 2013, minor filed his notice of appeal.
II
STATEMENT OF FACTS
The People filed four petitions against minor. As provided above, the first two
petitions were for two separate instances of misdemeanor possession of a knife on school
grounds in 2011. No further petitions were filed until after minor’s term of formal
probation expired.
In December of 2012, minor was caught attempting to steal cologne from Sears;
this formed the basis of minor’s third petition. In September 2012, minor’s fourth
petition involved his possession of a car that he knew to be stolen.
III
ANALYSIS
Minor appealed and, upon his request, this court appointed counsel to represent
him. Counsel has filed a brief under the authority of People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d
436 and Anders v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 738, setting forth a statement of the case, a
summary of the facts and potential arguable issues, and requesting this court conduct an
independent review of the record.
3
We offered minor an opportunity to file a personal supplemental brief, but he has
not done so. Pursuant to the mandate of People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, we have
independently reviewed the record for potential error and find no arguable issues.
