IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA

SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT

DIVISION ONE

THE PEOPLE, B344224

Plaintiff and Respondent, (Los Angeles County Super. Ct. No. VA027687) v.

IRA LEE PERRY,

Defendant and Appellant.

APPEAL from an order of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County, Lisa S. Coen, Judge. Affirmed. Ira Lee Perry, in pro. per.; Nancy Gaynor, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant. No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent. __________________________________

Appellant Ira Lee Perry appeals from an order denying his petition filed under Penal Code section 1172.6 (former section 1170.95).1 After his appointed appellate counsel filed a brief under People v. Delgadillo (2022) 14 Cal.5th 216 attesting she could find no arguable issues, Perry filed a supplemental brief urging us to independently examine the records of this case to determine his innocence. Because section 1172.6 does not permit Perry to relitigate issues already decided and because Perry fails to demonstrate or even argue any error the court committed in denying his section 1172.6 petition, we affirm.
