v. (Super. Ct. No. 62128110C)
ANNA RITA VELASQUEZ,
Defendant and Appellant.
Appointed counsel for defendant Anna Rita Velasquez has asked this court to review the record to determine whether there exist any arguable issues on appeal. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 (Wende).) Finding no arguable error that would result in a disposition more favorable to defendant, we will affirm the judgment. I We provide the following brief description of the facts and procedural history of the case. (See People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, 110, 124.)

On February 6, 2014, defendant and her co-defendants, all of whom were personally armed, entered the residence of victims Yvette R. and Mason T. Defendant and her two co-defendants confronted the victims and, through force and fear and over the course of several hours, took personal property belonging to the victims (including a car and a truck, personal clothing, and electronics) and left the residence with that personal property. When defendant and her cohorts were apprehended a short time later, they were found to be in possession of the stolen property. During the subsequent booking process at Placer County jail, defendant was found to be in possession of a usable quantity of methamphetamine.
