THE PEOPLE,

                   Plaintiff and Respondent,                                                  C077167

         v.                                                                       (Super. Ct. No. 62128695)

SALVADOR VERA CERVANTES,

                   Defendant and Appellant.


         Appointed counsel for defendant Salvador Vera Cervantes asked this court to
review the record to determine whether there are any arguable issues on appeal.
(People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 (Wende).) After reviewing the entire record, we
discovered the trial court’s sentencing order is not consistent with defendant’s negotiated
plea agreement, namely the remaining charges were not dismissed. Accordingly, we
remand the matter to the trial court to dismiss the remaining charges. In all other
respects, the judgment is affirmed.




                                                              1
                                      BACKGROUND
        On March 4, 2014, defendant entered the home of Marvin and Marie K.,
while they were in the home, with the intent to steal from them and, in fact, stole from
them.
        The People charged defendant with burglary of an inhabited dwelling, grand theft
of a firearm, unlawful taking of a vehicle, and being a felon in possession of a firearm.
The People also alleged defendant was previously convicted of two strike offenses.
Defendant pleaded no contest to the burglary charge and admitted he was previously
convicted of two strike offenses for attempted voluntary manslaughter. In exchange for
his plea, the People agreed they would move to dismiss the remaining charges with a
Harvey1 waiver at the time of sentencing.
        Following entry of his plea, defendant invited the trial court to dismiss one of his
prior strike convictions pursuant to People v. Romero (2002) 99 Cal.App.4th 1418, and
Penal Code section 1385, subdivision (a). The trial court declined to dismiss the prior
strike conviction. After this ruling, defendant informed the court he wanted to withdraw
his plea based on ineffective assistance of counsel. The court held a hearing on
defendant’s request to relieve his appointed counsel pursuant to People v. Marsden
(1970) 2 Cal.3d 118. The trial court denied defendant’s request.
        On August 18, 2014, the trial court sentenced defendant to serve a term of 25
years to life in state prison based on his plea to the burglary charge and two prior strikes.
The court also ordered defendant to pay various fines and fees and awarded him a total of
193 days of custody credits.
        Defendant appeals with a certificate of probable cause.




1       People v. Harvey (1979) 25 Cal.3d 754.

                                              2
                                      DISCUSSION
       Defendant was advised by counsel of the right to file a supplemental brief within
30 days of the date of filing of the opening brief. Before the 30 days elapsed, defendant
asked this court to relieve his appointed counsel for ineffective assistance. We denied his
request.
       Having undertaken an examination of the entire record, we discovered the
People did not move to dismiss the remaining charges at the sentencing hearing as
agreed in the negotiated plea agreement. As a result, the trial court did not dismiss the
firearms and vehicle theft charges at the sentencing hearing. Based on the terms of the
negotiated plea agreement, we remand the matter to the trial court to dismiss the
remaining charges.
                                      DISPOSITION
       The matter is remanded to the trial court to dismiss the grand theft of a firearm,
unlawful taking of a vehicle, and being a felon in possession of a firearm charges, in
accordance with the negotiated plea agreement. In all other respects, the judgment is
affirmed.
