                                        INTRODUCTION


       Defendant and appellant Alonzo McKinney (defendant) appealed from an order
denying his petition for resentencing under Penal Code section 1170.18.1 On appeal,
defendant’s appointed counsel filed an opening brief in accordance with People v. Wende
(1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 (Wende) requesting that this court conduct an independent review
of the record to determine if there are any arguable appellate issues. On April 8, 2016,
we gave notice to defendant that his counsel had failed to find any arguable issues and
that defendant had 30 days within which to submit by brief any arguments he wished this
court to consider. Defendant filed a supplemental brief in which he contends that his
alleged felony conviction under section 487.2 should be reduced to a misdemeanor or the
matter remanded to the trial court for resentencing. We have reviewed the record and
affirm the order.


                                    BACKGROUND2


       In September 2015, defendant filed a petition for resentencing pursuant to section
1170.18,3 seeking resentencing with respect to his alleged 1994 felony conviction under
section 487.2. The trial court denied the petition, stating “[t]he court records are


1      All statutory citations are to the Penal Code unless otherwise noted.

2      We omit a recitation of the facts concerning defendant’s underlying offense
because defendant’s appeal is from an order denying a post-judgment petition for
resentencing.

3      Section 1170.18, subdivision (a) provides, “A person currently serving a sentence
for a conviction, whether by trial or plea, of a felony or felonies who would have been
guilty of a misdemeanor under the act that added this section (‘this act’) had this act been
in effect at the time of the offense may petition for a recall of sentence before the trial
court that entered the judgment of conviction in his or her case to request
resentencing . . . .”

incomplete and do not show the charge the defendant was convicted of in 1994. Burden
is on the petitioner/defendant.”
       On appeal, we took judicial notice of the microfilm records of the trial court file,
according to which in November 1994 the District Attorney of Los Angeles County filed
an information charging defendant with one count of second degree robbery in violation
of section 211, and related charges. Those records indicate that defendant was not
convicted in the underlying case. They contain signed and filed verdict forms stating that
defendant was found not guilty of second degree robbery (count 1), and grand theft
person in violation of section 487.2, the necessary included offense of count 1.
Defendant was acquitted.4 The microfilm records include a filed but unsigned verdict
form concerning “Grand Theft Person, a felony, in violation of . . . Section 487.2, a lesser
necessarily included offense than that as charged in Count [1] of the information,” and
defendant’s supplemental brief relies upon this unsigned verdict form.


                                      DISCUSSION


       A.     Grand Theft Person
       Defendant contends that because he was convicted of, and sentenced for, the
felony of grand theft person in violation of section 487.2, that crime should be reduced to
a misdemeanor or the matter should be remanded to the trial court for resentencing. We
disagree. Defendant was found not guilty of the charges asserted against him, including
the lesser included offense of grand theft person in violation of section 487.2, and was
acquitted. Defendant has not established that the trial court erred in denying his petition.




4      We take judicial notice of an abstract of judgment in Los Angeles Superior Court
case number BA140260, filed on November 4, 1997, reflecting that in 1997, shortly after
his acquittal in the underlying case, defendant was convicted of assault on an officer in a
violation section 245(c) and resisting an executive officer in a violation of section 69 and
sentenced to state prison for a term of 25 years to life with the possibility of parole.

                                             3
      B.     Review
      In addition to reviewing the matters raised in defendant’s supplemental brief, we
have made an independent examination of the entire record to determine if there are any
other arguable issues on appeal. Based on that review, we have determined that there are
no other arguable issues on appeal. We are therefore satisfied that defendant’s counsel
has fully complied with her responsibilities under Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d 436.


                                    DISPOSITION
      The order is affirmed.
