         v.

ALPHONSO EARL WHITMAN,

                   Defendant and Appellant.




         This is an appeal pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.
         On October 4, 2012, California Highway Patrol officers stopped defendant
Alphonso Earl Whitman for driving a car with tinted front windows and a missing license
plate. Defendant appeared intoxicated. After failing a field sobriety test, he was arrested.
A search incident to arrest revealed two bindles of cocaine.




                                                             1
       In case No. 12F06701, defendant entered a plea of no contest to possession of a
controlled substance, to wit, cocaine. (Health & Saf. Code, § 11350, subd. (a).) The
court suspended imposition of sentence and granted probation for a term of five years.
       On February 7, 2014, officers conducted a formal probation search of defendant’s
apartment and discovered two hypodermic needles, a spoon with a light brown liquid,
463 oxycodone pills, 109 hydrocodone pills, two digital scales, numerous empty pill
containers, a chemical test kit, and $1,198 in cash. Defendant admitted that he did not
have a prescription for the pills. He claimed the cash was from lottery winnings and a
Pell Grant.
       In case No. 14F00992, defendant’s Pitchess1 motion was denied by the trial court,
which conducted an in camera review and found no records were to be disclosed.
Defendant subsequently entered a plea of no contest to two counts of possession of a
controlled substance for sale (Health & Saf. Code, § 11351 – counts one [hydrocodone]
and two [oxycodone]), and admitted a strike prior (§§ 667, subds. (b)-(i), 1170.12 [1995
forcible rape (§ 261, subd. (a)(2))]). Defendant also admitted violating probation in case
No. 12F06701.
       In case No. 14F00992, after denying defendant’s request to dismiss the strike prior
(Pen. Code, § 1385) , the trial court sentenced defendant to state prison for the midterm
of three years, doubled for the strike prior, for count one, and two years, stayed pursuant
to Penal Code section 654, for count two. In case No. 12F06701, the court sentenced
defendant to one-third the midterm or eight months.
       Defendant appeals both cases. The trial court granted defendant’s request for a
certificate of probable cause. (Pen. Code, § 1237.5.)

                                             2
       We appointed counsel to represent defendant on appeal. Counsel filed an opening
brief that sets forth the facts of the case and requests this court to review the record and
determine whether there are any arguable issues on appeal. (People v. Wende, supra,
25 Cal.3d 436.) 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. More than 30 days elapsed,
and we received no communication from defendant. Having undertaken an examination
of the entire record, we find no arguable error that would result in a disposition more
favorable to defendant.
       We note an error in preparation of the abstract of judgment. It fails to reflect that
the court ordered defendant to pay the $240 restitution fine that had been previously
ordered in case No. 12F06701. We order the abstract corrected accordingly. (People v.
Mitchell (2001) 26 Cal.4th 181, 185.)
                                       DISPOSITION
       The trial court is directed to prepare a corrected abstract of judgment reflecting the
$240 restitution fine in case No. 12F06701 and to forward a certified copy of the
corrected abstract to the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation. The judgment is
affirmed.
