IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA THIRD APPELLATE DISTRICT (Butte)

THE PEOPLE, C072361

Plaintiff and Respondent, (Super. Ct. Nos. CM035918 & CM036800) v.

CHRISTOPHER GAUGUSH,

Defendant and Appellant.

Appointed counsel for defendant Christopher Walter Gaugush 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 (Wende).) We will modify the judgment to include a parole revocation fine of $240 in each of the matters from which defendant has appealed. Finding no other arguable error that would result in a disposition more favorable to defendant, we will affirm the judgment. I The matter here was resolved by plea and without a probation report. Accordingly, the facts are taken from the factual basis to which the parties stipulated in the trial court.

In February 2012, defendant entered the Walgreen’s store in Chico, California. Inside the Walgreens, defendant “jumped” over the pharmacy counter and stole narcotic medications. Defendant ran from the store but was soon detained by law enforcement. Defendant was subsequently charged in Butte County Superior Court case No. CM035918 with second degree robbery (Pen. Code, § 211),1 obstructing a peace officer (§ 148, subd. (a)(1)), and second degree commercial burglary (§ 459). It was further alleged that defendant served a prior prison term (§ 667.5, subd. (b)) and is required to register as a sex offender (§ 290). In July 2012, defendant was charged in Butte County Superior Court case No. CM036800 with failing to register annually as a transient sex offender. (§ 290.011, subd. (c).) Defendant entered a negotiated plea to resolve both matters. He pleaded no contest to failing to register annually as a sex offender and to second degree commercial burglary. In exchange, the remaining charges and allegations were dismissed and the People agreed defendant would serve a stipulated term of three years eight months in state prison. Defendant waived a referral to probation and he was sentenced in accordance with his plea. The trial court ordered various fines and fees to be paid, including a $240 restitution fine in each case. Defendant was awarded 313 days of custody credit in case No. CM035918; he received no custody credits in case No. CM036800. Defendant appeals; his request for a certificate of probable cause was denied.
