LORENZO MOSSO,
Defendant and Appellant.
APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County, William L. Sadler, Judge. Dismissed. Allen G. Weinberg, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, and Lorenzo Mosso, in pro. per., for Defendant and Appellant. No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent.

1 All further statutory references are to the Penal Code unless otherwise stated.
filed a brief raising no issues and requested we proceed under People v. Delgadillo (2022) 14 Cal.5th 216 (Delgadillo). Mosso filed a supplemental brief. Because the trial court’s order is not appealable, we dismiss the appeal.
BACKGROUND In February 2003, a jury convicted Mosso of 16 counts of forcible lewd act upon a child (§ 288, subd. (b)(1)) and one count of aggravated sexual assault of a child, sodomy (§ 269, subd. (a)(3)). The trial court sentenced Mosso to 128 years plus 15 years to life in state prison. On December 26, 2024, Mosso filed a form request for recall of sentence and resentencing pursuant to Assembly Bill No. 600 and section 1172.1. On January 10, 2025, the trial court summarily denied the request. The court stated that “neither the [District Attorney] or [the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation] has recommended resentence and the court will not initiate resentencing on its own motion.” Mosso timely appealed. His appointed appellate counsel filed a brief raising no issues and requesting that we exercise our discretion to independently review the record for error pursuant to Delgadillo, supra, 14 Cal.5th at pages 231–232. Mosso filed a supplemental brief, asserting that “the trial court’s order denying Penal Code section 1172.1 relief is an appealable order.”
