IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT DIVISION SIX

THE PEOPLE, 2d Crim. No. B268871 (Super. Ct. No. NA100124) Plaintiff and Respondent, (Los Angeles County) v. GREG ELLISON FERRALL, Defendant and Appellant.

Greg Ellison Ferrall was charged with carrying a dirk or dagger. (Pen.

Code, § 21310.) Proceeding in propria persona, he moved to suppress evidence, dismiss the charge against him, and obtain Pitchess discovery, all of which the trial court denied.

A jury convicted him. Subsequently, he requested and was appointed counsel. The trial court denied his motions to declare his conviction a misdemeanor (§ 17, subd. (b)(3)), and to dismiss a "strike" allegation (People v. Superior Court (Romero) (1996) 13 Cal.4th 497). He admitted the "strike" prior. (§§ 667, subds. (b)-(j), 1170.12.) The trial court

All statutory references are to the Penal Code. (Pitchess v. Superior Court (1974) 11 Cal.3d 531.) Ferrall filed two Pitchess motions but abandoned the first one. sentenced him to 32 months in prison, the low term doubled, and released him on parole with credit for time served.

A supervisor at Von's Grocery Store in Long Beach called the police to report that Ferrall was pacing at the front entrance to the store and that an inch of the butt of a knife was sticking out of his pocket. Two police officers stopped Ferrall at an intersection near the Von's. They could not see a weapon on him. During a patdown search, they discovered a fixed-blade knife in the left front pocket of his shorts.

Appointed counsel filed a brief raising no issues and requesting our independent review pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436. On April 12, 2016, we notified Ferrall that he had 30 days in which to advise us of any claims he wished us to consider. No response has been received.

We have reviewed the entire record and are satisfied that Ferrall's attorney has fully complied with her responsibilities and that no arguable issues exist. (People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, 123-124; People v. Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d at pp. 441-442.)

The judgment is affirmed.

NOT TO BE PUBLISHED.
