IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA FOURTH APPELLATE DISTRICT DIVISION TWO

THE PEOPLE, Defendant and Appellant, E085248 v. (Super.Ct.No. RIF1805023) JOSEPH ANDREW ARIAS, OPINION Defendant and Appellant.

APPEAL from the Superior Court of Riverside County. David A. Gunn, Judge.

Dismissed.

James M. Kehoe, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, Joseph Arias in Pro.

Per. for Defendant and Appellant.

No appearance by Plaintiff and Respondent.

On the court’s own motion, the appeal filed in the superior court on April 17, 2025, from the trial court’s denial of defendant’s postjudgment petition for resentencing under Penal Code section 1172.75 is dismissed because it does not affect defendant’s substantial rights. (Pen. Code, § 1237, subd. (b).) Defendant was not authorized to bring a petition for resentencing under section 1172.75, and the trial court lacked jurisdiction to adjudicate his petition. (See People v. Burgess (2022) 86 Cal.App.5th 375, 380-382, 384 [“[S]ection 1172.75 simply does not contemplate resentencing relief initiated by any individual defendant’s petition or motion.”].) Since the court lacked jurisdiction when it denied defendant’s resentencing petition, denial of the petition could not have affected his substantial rights. (People v. Chlad (1992) 6 Cal.App.4th 1719, 1725-1726.)

Accordingly, the order denying defendant’s petition for resentencing is not an appealable order, and the appeal must be dismissed. (Id. at p. 1725; see People v. Fuimaono (2019) 32 Cal.App.5th 132, 135.)

DISPOSITION The appeal is dismissed.
