                                                 DIVISION FOUR


THE PEOPLE,
         Plaintiff and Respondent,
                                                                     A141591
v.
RONALD EVANS MCDUFFIE,                                               (San Francisco County
                                                                     Super. Ct. No. 220631)
         Defendant and Appellant.


         Ronald Evans McDuffie appeals from a judgment imposed after revocation of his
probation. His counsel raises no issues and asks this court for an independent review of
the record to determine whether there are any arguable issues. (People v. Wende (1979)
25 Cal.3d 436.) Defendant was apprised of his right to file a supplemental brief but did
not do so.
         On October 1, 2012, in the Merced County Superior Court, defendant waived his
right to a preliminary hearing and pled no contest to corporal injury on a spouse or
cohabitant (Pen. Code, § 273.5(a)). The court suspended imposition of sentence and
placed defendant on probation for three years on conditions including that he serve one
year in the county jail, that he not have any contact with the victim, C.T., and that he
complete a 52-week certified domestic violence treatment program.
         The matter was transferred to San Francisco County on July 10, 2013. The court
ordered that probation be extended to September 30, 2015.
         On January 27, 2014, the district attorney filed a motion to revoke probation on
the grounds that defendant was terminated from his domestic violence program on


                                                             1
December 31, 2013 because he missed four classes without an explanation and he was
involved in another domestic violence incident with the same victim.
       The probation revocation hearing was held on February 28, 2014. C.T. testified
that on January 24, 2014, she was living with defendant in his mother’s home when she
got into an argument with him. C.T. pushed defendant; she thought he was about to hit
her. He “grazed” the side of her head with his fist. C.T. called the police. C.T. had lived
with defendant for the past six months.
       The court took judicial notice of the probation report insofar as it noted
defendant’s termination from his domestic violence program due to having missed four
classes without an explanation.
       The court found by a preponderance of the evidence that defendant violated the
terms of his probation by failing to complete the domestic violence counseling program,
assaulting C.T., and violating the stay-away order by living with her for six months. The
court reinstated defendant on probation on conditions including that he serve one year in
the county jail and complete a 12-month domestic violence program.
       Defendant was represented by counsel throughout the proceedings. There was no
error in the sentencing. This court has reviewed the entire record and there are no
meritorious issues to be argued.
       The judgment is affirmed.
