COURT OF APPEAL, FOURTH APPELLATE DISTRICT

DIVISION ONE

STATE OF CALIFORNIA

THE PEOPLE, D084714

Plaintiff and Respondent,

v. (Super. Ct. No. SCD183228)

JASON DEE PARTEE,

Defendant and Appellant.

APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of San Diego County, Robert F. O’Neill, Judge. Affirmed. Jason Partee, in pro. per.; and Matthew A. Lopas, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant. No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent. In 2005, a jury convicted Jason Dee Partee of attempted murder of a

peace officer (Pen. Code,1 §§ 664 & 187, subd. (a)); assault on a peace officer (§ 245, subd. (d)(1)); shooting into an occupied vehicle (§ 246); and robbery

1 All statutory references are to the Penal Code.

(§ 211) among other allegations. This court affirmed the convictions in an unpublished opinion. (People v. Partee (Mar. 7, 2008, D049649).) In 2022, Partee filed a petition for resentencing under section 1172.6. The court appointed counsel, received briefing, and held a hearing. The court determined Partee had made a prima facie case for relief under the statute. The court issued an order to show cause and held an evidentiary hearing. At the completion of the hearing, the court found Partee was the actual shooter in this case and denied relief under section 1172.6. Partee filed a timely notice of appeal. Appellate counsel has filed a brief pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 indicating counsel has not been able to identify any arguable issues for reversal on appeal. Appellate counsel asks the court to independently review the record for error as mandated by Wende. We offered Partee the opportunity to file his own brief on appeal. Partee has responded by filing his own brief. In his brief, Partee complains about appellate counsel’s failure to raise issues on his appeal. Partee focuses on the original trial. He disputes evidence at trial, claims some evidence was false, and alleges his attorneys have been incompetent. He does not, however, address issues challenging the trial court’s decision in this resentencing proceeding. We resolved the validity of the convictions years ago in our original appeal. Partee’s supplemental brief does not identify any arguable issues for reversal of the judgment before us. The facts of the underlying offenses in this case are adequately addressed in our original opinion on appeal. We will not repeat them here.
