COURT OF APPEAL, FOURTH APPELLATE DISTRICT
DIVISION ONE
STATE OF CALIFORNIA
THE PEOPLE, D080612
Plaintiff and Respondent,
v. (Super. Ct. No. RIF132924)
SERGIO RODRIGUEZ,
Defendant and Appellant.
APPEAL from an order of the Superior Court of Riverside County, John D. Molloy, Judge. Affirmed. Sergio Rodriguez, in pro. per.; and Christopher Love, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant. No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent. In 2009, a jury convicted Sergio Rodriguez and a codefendant of
attempted murder (Pen. Code,1 §§ 664/187, subd. (a)). The jury also found Rodriguez and codefendant Salvador Munguia were principals in the offense and that at least one of the principals intentionally discharged a firearm

causing great bodily injury (§ 12022.53, subd. (d)). Rodriguez was sentenced to a seven-year term consecutive to a 25 year-to-life term for the firearm enhancement. Rodriguez appealed and this court affirmed his conviction and sentence in an unpublished opinion. (People v. Munguia et al. (Dec. 21, 2010, D056080).) In 2022, Rodriguez filed a petition for resentencing under section 1170.95 (now renumbered section 1172.6). The court appointed counsel, received briefing, and held a hearing. The court denied the petition, finding the record demonstrated the jury found Rodriguez was the actual shooter and that he was not convicted on a natural and probable consequences theory of liability. Rodriguez filed a timely notice of appeal. Appellate counsel has filed a brief pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 (Wende) indicating counsel has not been able to identify any arguable issues for reversal on appeal. Counsel asks the court to review the record consistent with Wende. We offered Rodriguez the opportunity to file his own brief on appeal and he has responded by filing a supplemental brief.
