                  v.                                                   (Super. Ct. No. 08FN0581)

MARK ANTHONY FIGUEROA, JR.,                                            OPINION

     Defendant and Appellant.


                   Appeal from a judgment of the Superior Court of Orange County, Francisco
P. Briseno, Judge. Affirmed.
                   Valerie G. Wass, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant
and Appellant.
                   No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent.


                                             *               *               *
              Defendant Mark Anthony Figueroa, Jr., attacked and stabbed a man,
causing his death. Defendant was convicted of second degree murder (count 1), with a
true finding he did it for the benefit, at the direction of, or in association with a criminal
street gang, and active participation in a criminal street gang (count 2). Defendant
admitted he had served a prior prison term. The trial court sentenced defendant to 15
years to life on count 1 and added a consecutive 10-year term for the gang enhancement.
It stayed a two-year sentence on count 2 (Pen. Code, § 654 (all further statutory
references are to this code), struck the prior prison term for sentencing purposes, and
awarded defendant 1,436 days of presentence custody credit.
              In People v. Figueroa (June 19, 2013, G046456) [nonpub. opn.], we
affirmed the convictions but reversed the matter for resentencing because the trial court
erroneously imposed the 10-year enhancement under section 186.22, subdivision
(b)(1)(C), rather than the 15-year parole minimum required by section 186.22,
subdivision (b)(5). (People v. Lopez (2005) 34 Cal.4th 1002, 1004; People v. Campos
(2011) 196 Cal.App.4th 438, 455.)
              The trial court resentenced defendant to a 15-years-to-life term for the
murder in count 1 and set a 15-year minimum parole eligibility date for the gang
enhancement. (§ 186.22, subd. (b)(5).) It then imposed the same terms and fines as it did
at the initial sentencing hearing except for increasing the award of presentence custody
credit to 2,174 days.
              Defendant timely appealed and we appointed counsel to represent him. In
her brief, counsel summarized the proceedings and the facts necessary to decide this
appeal, and while not arguing against defendant, stated she had found no arguable issues
to present. (Anders v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 738 [87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493];
People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.) Although we notified defendant he could file
written argument on his own behalf, the time to do so has passed and no communication
has been received from him.

                                               2
             We have reviewed the record according to our obligations under Wende,
supra, 25 Cal.3d 436 and Anders, supra, 485 U.S. 738, but found no arguable issues on
appeal.
             The judgment is affirmed.
