IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
FIRST APPELLATE DISTRICT
DIVISION TWO
THE PEOPLE, Plaintiff and Respondent, A170115 v. JESSE FRANKLIN WOLFE, (Mendocino County Super. Ct. No. 22CR01595) Defendant and Appellant.
Defendant Jesse Franklin Wolfe appeals from the revocation of his postrelease community supervision (PRCS). Counsel for Wolfe filed a brief raising no issues and requesting this court conduct an independent review of the record pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 (Wende). Counsel informed Wolfe of his right to file a supplemental brief, but we have not received one.1 After reviewing the record, we conclude there are no arguable issues and therefore affirm.
1 Because this appeal is not from a judgment of conviction, it is doubtful
that Wolfe is entitled to Wende review. (People v. Freeman (2021) 61 Cal.App.5th 126, 132–134 [declining to extend Wende review “to an appeal from an order revoking and reinstating PRCS absent a federal constitutional basis for doing so”]; see also People v.

BACKGROUND Wolfe was charged in Lassen County with felony counts of conspiracy to bring drugs into prison (Pen. Code,2 § 182, subd. (a)(1)) and possession of drugs while a prisoner (§ 4573.6). In May 2021, Wolfe pled guilty to possession of drugs while a prisoner in exchange for dismissal of the conspiracy count. After advising Wolfe of his constitutional rights and finding them “knowingly and intelligently waived,” the court accepted the plea agreement and sentenced Wolfe to the stipulated low term of two years in state prison, to be served consecutively to Wolfe’s prior prison commitments.3 The court also imposed fees and restitution fines. In May 2022, Wolfe was released on PRCS4 with directions to refrain from engaging “in conduct prohibited by law,” to report to the Mendocino County Probation Department “within two working days” of being released, and to keep his probation officer advised of Wolfe’s residential and mailing address “at all times.” However, Wolfe failed to timely report to the probation department or provide valid contact information. Thus, on July 5, 2022, the Mendocino County Superior Court issued a no bail arrest warrant
