Can a defendant appeal against his conviction for aggravated assault on an assault charge in the Superior Court of Appeal?

California, United States of America


The following excerpt is from People v. Davis, E063201 (Cal. App. 2015):

After defendant appealed, 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, a summary of the facts and potential arguable issues, and requesting this court to conduct an independent review of the record. We offered defendant an opportunity to file a personal supplemental brief, and he has not done so.

Pursuant to the mandate of People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, we have independently reviewed the entire record for potential error and find no arguable error that would result in a disposition more favorable to defendant.

The trial court's order denying defendant's petition for dismissal and/or reduction of his aggravated assault conviction is affirmed.
