IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT
DIVISION FOUR
THE PEOPLE, B242568
Plaintiff and Respondent, (Los Angeles County
Super. Ct. No. VA121372)
v.
ROY ALFONSO ZAMORA,
Defendant and Appellant.
APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County,
Roger Ito, Judge. Affirm.
Richard B. Lennon, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for
Defendant and Appellant Roy Alfonso Zamora.
No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent.
______________________________
Defendant Roy Alfonso Zamora appeals from the judgment entered after his no
contest plea to attempted murder. His appointed counsel filed a Wende brief. (People v.
Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.) On November 30, 2012, we directed appointed counsel to
send the record and a copy of counsel’s brief to defendant and notified defendant of his
right to respond within 30 days. We received no response.
Defendant’s notice of appeal states that it is based upon the sentence or other
matters occurring after the plea that do not affect its validity. (Cal. Rules of Court, rule
8.304(b)(4).) We have reviewed the whole record under People v. Kelly (2006)
40 Cal.4th 106, focusing upon the sentence as that is the only matter that occurred after
entry of the plea.
Defendant was originally charged with two counts: 1) premeditated attempted
murder (Pen.Code, §§ 664, 187, subd. (a))1 and 2) assault with a deadly weapon (§ 245,
subd. (a)(1)). The information was later amended to include a third count of attempted
murder. Use of a knife and infliction of great bodily injury (§§ 12022, subd. (b)(1),
12022.7, subd. (a) were alleged as to counts 1 and 3.
Defendant pled no contest to count 3, attempted murder, and admitted the
enhancement allegations. Pursuant to a plea agreement, he was sentenced to 12 years in
prison, consisting of a high term of nine years for the attempted murder, plus three years
for the great bodily injury enhancement. The court stayed punishment on the weapon-use
enhancement. The remaining charges were dismissed. Defendant was awarded 299 days
of custody credit (260 days of actual credit and 39 days of conduct credit), and ordered to
provide a DNA sample. The court imposed a restitution fine of $240 and an additional
$240 suspended parole revocation fine. (§§ 1202.4, subd. (b), 1202.45). Additionally,
the court assessed a $40 court security fee and a $30 criminal conviction assessment fee.
(§ 1465.8, Gov. Code, § 70373.)
Having reviewed the record, we are satisfied that no arguable issues for appeal
exist.
