This opinion has not been certified for publication or ordered published for purposes of rule 8.1115.

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

THE PEOPLE, 2d Crim. No. B309400 (Super. Ct. No. BA423889) Plaintiff and Respondent, (Los Angeles County) v. APHTON WRIGHT, Defendant and Appellant.

Aphton Wright appeals from the postjudgment order denying his petition for a reduction of his sentence. We dismiss.

In 2015, Wright was convicted of burglary. (Pen.

Code,1 § 459.) He admitted he had a prior serious felony conviction (§ 667, subd. (a)) and a prior strike conviction. (§§ 667, subds. (b)-(i), 1170.12.) The court sentenced him to 13 years in state prison (four years for the burglary, doubled for the strike, and a five-year enhancement for the prior serious felony).

1 Further unspecified statutory references are to the Penal Code. In 2020, Wright petitioned for a reduction of his sentence pursuant to section 1170, subd. (d)(1) and Assembly Bill No. 1812 (2017-2018 Reg. Sess.). He also challenged the Board of Parole Hearing’s decision to deny him an early parole date. The trial court denied his petition.

We appointed counsel to represent Wright in this appeal. After examining the record, counsel filed an opening brief that raises no arguable issues. We advised Wright that he had 30 days to personally submit any contentions or issues he wished us to consider. He did not file a supplemental brief.

Because this appeal is from an order denying postconviction relief rather than Wright’s first appeal of right from a criminal conviction, he is not entitled to review pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436. (People v. Serrano (2012) 211 Cal.App.4th 496, 501; People v. Cole (2020) 52 Cal.App.5th 1023, review granted Oct. 14, 2020, S264278.)

Because Wright has not filed a supplemental brief, we dismiss the appeal. (Cole, supra, at p. 1028.)

DISPOSITION The appeal is dismissed.

NOT TO BE PUBLISHED.
