         Plaintiff and Respondent,                                   Super. Ct. No. SS031482)

             v.

JEANNE MARIE SOJA,

         Defendant and Appellant.



         On May 20, 2004, an amended information was filed in Monterey County
Superior Court charging appellant and codefendants with one count of murder (Pen.
Code, § 187, subd. (a)) with special allegations as to each defendant that he or she had
personally used a deadly and dangerous weapon (Pen. Code, § 12022, subd. (b)), with
one count of kidnapping (Pen. Code, § 207, subd. (a)), one count of child endangerment
(Pen. Code, § 273a, subd. (a)), one count of transportation or sale of methamphetamine.
(Health & Saf. Code, § 11379), and one count of voluntary manslaughter. (Pen. Code,
§ 192, subd. (a).) Appellant pled guilty to all counts except the murder count, which was
dismissed in furtherance of justice. On September 3, 2004, appellant was sentenced to
serve 16 years in prison.
         On March 12, 2015, appellant filed a petition for recall of sentence and
resentencing pursuant to Proposition 47. (Pen. Code, § 1170.18.) The district attorney
opposed the petition.
       On April 3, 2015 the trial court denied the petition, because Health and Safety
Code section 11379 was not eligible for resentencing under Proposition 47. On
May 21, 2015, appellant filed a timely notice of appeal.
       On appeal, we appointed counsel to represent appellant in this court. Appointed
counsel filed an opening brief pursuant to People v. Serrano (2012) 211 Cal.App.4th 496
(Serrano), which states the case and the facts but raises no specific issues. Pursuant to
Serrano, on October 1, 2015 we notified appellant of her right to submit written argument
in her own behalf within 30 days. On October 22, 2015, we received a supplemental
brief from appellant. In her supplemental brief, the appellant argues that she is entitled to
relief under Proposition 47 because she has served the majority of her sentence on the
other non-drug crimes charged and because there was no evidence or factual basis to
support the conviction for sale or transportation for sale of methamphetamine. (Health &
Saf. Code, § 11379.)
       Proposition 47, the “Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act,” reduces specified theft
and drug felonies to misdemeanors and also establishes a resentencing mechanism for
inmates currently in custody on such offenses. The trial court correctly determined that
appellant’s conviction for violation of Health and Safety Code section 11379 is not
eligible for resentencing. Any issues related to the sufficiency of the evidence for the
original conviction are untimely and not properly raised in an appeal from an order
denying a petition for resentencing pursuant to Proposition 47. As nothing in appellant’s
supplemental brief raises an arguable issue on appeal, we must dismiss the appeal.
(Serrano, supra, 211 Cal.App.4th at pp. 503-504.)
                                       DISPOSITION
       The appeal is dismissed.
