BACKGROUND On June 12, 2015, defendant and M.C. went to a concert in Wheatland. In the parking lot before the concert, M.C. drank to the point of intoxication, and, feeling sick, retired to the cab of defendant’s truck. Defendant went to the truck and had intercourse with M.C., who repeatedly said no and threw up. M.C. contacted law enforcement shortly thereafter. Defendant admitted M.C. was drunk and sick. He initially denied having sex with her, but later said he had consensual sex with M.C. Defendant pleaded no contest to forcible rape. (Pen. Code, § 261, subd. (a)(2).) The trial court sentenced defendant to a stipulated three-year state prison term, imposed various fines and fees including an $1,140 Penal Code section 290.3 fine and assessments, and awarded 49 days of presentence credit (43 actual and 6 conduct). Defendant appeals. He did not obtain a certificate of probable cause. DISCUSSION We appointed counsel to represent defendant on appeal. Counsel filed an opening brief that sets forth the facts of the case and requests this court review the record and determine whether there are any arguable issues on appeal. (Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d 436.) Defendant was advised by counsel of the right to file a supplemental brief within 30 days of the date of filing of the opening brief. Defendant filed a supplemental brief raising various questions regarding items related to his case--some part of the record and some not--which he complains were not provided to him. These items include a transcript of his preliminary hearing, his arrest reports, a newspaper article, and the “GPS data” from his telephone. He then makes a lengthy series of objections and requests for correction of alleged factual mistakes in the presentence report, most of which are minor. For example, he claims the report incorrectly notes his height and weight, as well as the status of his ex fiancée as his girlfriend. Although he emphasizes that he “do[es] not want to take back [his] plea
