THE PEOPLE, C101783

Plaintiff and Respondent, (Super. Ct. Nos. CR2024-0137 & CR2023-0609) v.

COURTNEY ANN GOODENOUGH,

Defendant and Appellant.

Appointed counsel for defendant Courtney Ann Goodenough has asked this court to review the record and determine whether there are any arguable issues on appeal. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.) Having conducted this review and finding no errors that would result in a disposition more favorable to defendant, we will affirm the judgment.

FACTUAL AND PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND On September 21, 2023, defendant pleaded no contest to elder theft (Pen. Code,1 § 368, subd. (d)), three counts of identity theft (§ 530.5, subd. (c)(2)), and making a false insurance claim (§ 550, subd. (a)(1)) in Yolo County Superior Court case No. CR2023- 0609 (case No. CR2023-0609), in exchange for a four-year split term and the remaining counts dismissed with a Harvey waiver. (People v. Harvey (1979) 25 Cal.3d 754.) Counsel for the parties stipulated to the preliminary hearing transcript as the factual basis for the plea. Sentencing was set for December 14, 2023. Defendant failed to appear for sentencing, and the trial court issued a bench warrant. On February 22, 2024, defendant pleaded no contest to identity theft (§ 530.5, subd. (c)(2)) in Yolo County Superior Court case No. CR2024-0137 (case No. CR2024- 0137), in exchange for an eight-month sentence to be added to the sentence on defendant’s previous plea, with the split to be determined. The prosecutor recited the factual basis for the plea: On October 30, 2023, a search of defendant’s apartment revealed multiple credit cards and checking information stolen several days earlier from people who reported their cars and mailboxes broken into. A second count alleged in the complaint was dismissed with a Harvey waiver. (People v. Harvey, supra, 25 Cal.3d. 754.) Case No. CR2024-0137 was joined with case No. CR2023-0609 for sentencing. On March 7, 2024, in case No. CR2023-0609, the trial court sentenced defendant to the lower term of two years for elder theft, eight months (one-third of the middle term) for each of the three identity theft counts, and three years concurrent on the false insurance claim count. In case No. CR2024-0137, the trial court sentenced defendant to eight months (one-third of the middle term) consecutive to the sentence imposed in case No. CR2023-0609. The total sentence imposed was four years eight months. The court
