                                                             1
         Defendant and appellant Miguel Roy Gonzalez was charged by felony complaint

with bringing controlled substances into a jail (Pen. Code,1 § 4573, count 1) and

possession of a controlled substance (Health & Saf. Code, § 11377, subd. (a), count 2).

The complaint also alleged that defendant had one prior strike conviction (§§ 1170.12,

subds. (a)-(d), 667, subds. (b)-(i)) and had served six prior prison sentences (§ 667.5,

subd. (b)). Pursuant to a plea agreement, defendant pled guilty to count 1. The parties

stipulated that the police reports provided a factual basis for the plea. The court

immediately sentenced defendant to the agreed upon term of four years in state prison,

with 290 days of custody credits. The court dismissed the remaining counts and

allegations. Defendant subsequently filed a petition to for resentencing pursuant to

section 1170.18, which the court denied. Defendant appeals from the denial of his

petition for resentencing. We affirm.

                               PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND

         On January 28, 2014, defendant entered a plea agreement and pled guilty to one

count of bringing controlled substances into a jail. (§ 4573). The court sentenced him to

four years in state prison, in accordance with the plea agreement.

         In November 2014, California voters approved Proposition 47 (effective

November 5, 2014). (§1170.18.) “Proposition 47 makes certain drug- and theft-related

offenses misdemeanors, unless the offenses were committed by certain ineligible

defendants. These offenses had previously been designated as either felonies or wobblers

         1   All further statutory references will be to the Penal Code, unless otherwise
noted.


                                                2
(crimes that can be punished as either felonies or misdemeanors).” (People v. Rivera

(2015) 233 Cal.App.4th 1085, 1091.) “Proposition 47 also created a new resentencing

provision: section 1170.18. Under section 1170.18, a person ‘currently serving’ a felony

sentence for an offense that is now a misdemeanor under Proposition 47, may petition for

a recall of that sentence and request resentencing in accordance with the statutes that

were added or amended by Proposition 47.” (Id. at p. 1092.)

       On December 17, 2014, defendant filed a petition for resentencing, pursuant to

Proposition 47. (§ 1170.18.) On January 16, 2015, the court found that defendant was

not eligible for resentencing and denied the petition.

       On February 5, 2015, defendant filed a notice of motion and motion for

reconsideration of the petition for resentencing with the superior court clerk. The notice

of motion and motion for reconsideration of the petition for resentencing were construed

to be an appeal.

                                      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 one potential arguable issue: whether he was eligible for resentencing under

section 1170.18. Counsel has also requested this court to undertake a review of the entire

record.




                                             3
      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 independently reviewed the record for potential error and find no arguable issues.

                                     DISPOSITION

      The judgment is affirmed.
