Appointed counsel for defendant Jesus Manuel Jimenez asked this court to review the record to determine whether there are any arguable issues on appeal. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.) Defendant was advised of his right to file a supplemental brief within 30 days of the date of filing of the opening brief. Defendant did not respond. Finding no arguable error that would result in a disposition more favorable to defendant, we affirm. BACKGROUND On September 8, 2014, at 12:51 a.m., defendant and three other men lured a man (the boyfriend of the ex-wife of one of the three men) out of his residence by banging on the front door and yelling that someone was breaking into his car. When the man came out, they attacked him. He retreated into his residence, but the group broke down the door and continued the assault. Defendant pulled splintered wood from the broken door frame and stabbed the man in the shoulder. Defendant then tried to stab him in the chest, but the man was able to move to avoid the strike. The group left the man bleeding from his head, arm/shoulder, and hand. On November 1, 2017, the Fresno County District Attorney filed a third amended information charging defendant with attempted murder (Pen. Code, §§ 664, 187;1 count 1), assault with a deadly weapon (§ 245, subd. (a)(1); count 2), and first degree burglary with a nonparticipant present (§§ 459, 460; count 3). As to counts 1 and 2, the information further alleged defendant personally used a deadly and dangerous weapon (§ 12022, subd. (b)(1)) and had suffered a prior “strike” conviction within the meaning of the “Three Strikes” law (§§ 667, subds. (b)–(i), 1170.12, subds. (a)–(d)). The same day, defendant pled no contest to counts 2 and 3 and admitted the prior strike conviction allegation, in return for an indicated sentence of nine years.
