IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA

SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT

DIVISION ONE

THE PEOPLE, B337121

Plaintiff and Respondent, (Los Angeles County Super. Ct. No. YA107086) v.

ROBERT ANTHONY MARQUEZ,

Defendant and Appellant.

APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County, Amy N. Carter, Judge. Affirmed. Lise M. Breakey, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant. No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent. _______________________________

Robert Anthony Marquez appeals from a judgment entered after he pled no contest to one count of assault with a deadly weapon under Penal Code section 245, subdivision (a)(1).1 The trial court sentenced him to the low term of two years in state prison. Marquez’s appointed counsel filed a brief pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 (Wende), raising no arguable issue and requesting that this court independently review the record. Marquez did not file a supplemental brief or letter after counsel and this court sent him written notice of his right to do so. We have reviewed the entire record and discerned no arguable issue. Accordingly, we affirm.

BACKGROUND A. Marquez assaulted a minor with a car door. We summarize the facts of Marquez’s offense as described in the preliminary hearing transcript, which supplied the factual basis for his no-contest plea. In November 2022, Ashleigh Farley, accompanied by her sons Brandon (then 13 years old) and Justice (18 years old), parked her white SUV on the street across from her house in Redondo Beach. Marquez lived in a nearby house on the same street and also had a white car, which was smaller than Farley’s. As Farley walked toward her house, Brandon and Justice searched her SUV for Brandon’s misplaced AirPods.
