THE PEOPLE,

         Plaintiff and Respondent,                                      E064596

v.                                                                      (Super.Ct.No. FVI1302679)

ANTHONY RICHARD MULZ,                                                   OPINION

         Defendant and Appellant.



         APPEAL from the Superior Court of San Bernardino County. Debra Harris,

Judge. Affirmed with directions.

         Forest M. Wilkerson, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant

and Appellant.

         No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent.

         Defendant and appellant Anthony Richard Mulz was charged by felony complaint

with first degree residential burglary (Pen. Code, § 459, count 1), the unlawful driving or

taking of a vehicle (Veh. Code, § 10851, subd. (a), count 2), and receiving stolen

property (Pen. Code, § 496d, subd. (a), count 3). It was also alleged that he had one prior

                                                             1
strike conviction. (Pen. Code, §§ 1170.12, subds. (a)-(d) & 667, subds. (b)-(i)).) Defense

counsel declared a doubt as to defendant’s competency, so the trial court suspended

proceedings and referred the matter out for a mental health evaluation. A medical report

was submitted finding defendant incompetent. The People requested a second doctor to

examine defendant, and the court granted the request. A second report was submitted

finding defendant incompetent, and the parties set the matter for a competency trial. The

matter was continued numerous times. Defense counsel requested defendant to be

reevaluated. A medical report was submitted finding defendant competent to stand trial.

Criminal proceedings were then reinstated. Pursuant to a plea agreement, defendant pled

no contest to the lesser included offense of attempted residential burglary (Pen. Code,

§§ 664, 459) and admitted the prior strike conviction. In accordance with the plea

agreement, the court sentenced him to the middle term of two years in state prison,

doubled pursuant to the strike conviction. The court also awarded 1460 days of

presentence custody credits. The court released defendant and ordered him to report

directly to parole.

       Defendant filed a timely notice of appeal, challenging the validity of the plea. He

requested a certificate of probable cause, which the court granted. We direct the superior

court to dismiss counts 2 and 3. Otherwise, we affirm.

                           PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND

       Defendant pled no contest to one count of attempted first degree residential

burglary. (Pen. Code, §§ 664, 459.)




                                             2
                                      DISCUSSION

       Defendant 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 and no potential arguable issues. Counsel has also requested this court to

undertake a review of the entire record.

       We offered defendant an opportunity to file a personal supplemental brief, which

he has not done.

       Pursuant to the mandate of People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, we have

conducted an independent review of the record and find no arguable issues.

       Although not raised by the parties, we note an apparent clerical error. Generally, a

clerical error is one inadvertently made. (People v. Schultz (1965) 238 Cal.App.2d 804,

808.) Clerical error can be made by a clerk, by counsel, or by the court itself. (Ibid.

[judge misspoke].) A court “has the inherent power to correct clerical errors in its

records so as to make these records reflect the true facts. [Citations.]” (In re Candelario

(1970) 3 Cal.3d 702, 705.)

       In this case, the court neglected to dismiss counts 2 and 3. The plea agreement

stated that defendant would plead no contest to a lesser included offense of count 1 and

admit the prior strike conviction, in exchange for a four-year term in state prison, minus

custody credits, and the dismissal of the remaining allegations. Defendant pled no

contest to a lesser included offense of count 1, but the court did not dismiss counts 2 and

3. Neither party mentioned the court’s failure to dismiss the counts below or on appeal.


                                             3
There is no reference to counts 2 and 3 in the abstract of judgment. Thus, the record

indicates that the parties intended those counts to be dismissed. It is evident the court’s

failure to order the dismissals was inadvertent. Accordingly, in the interest of clarity, we

will direct the trial court to dismiss counts 2 and 3 and to generate a new minute order

reflecting the dismissals.

                                      DISPOSITION

       The trial court is directed to order the dismissal of counts 2 and 3, and the superior

court clerk is directed to generate a new minute order reflecting those dismissals. In all

other respects, the judgment is affirmed.
