no arguable issues under People v. Delgadillo (2022) 14 Cal.5th 216 or People v . Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 and requested we exercise our discretion to review the entire record for arguable issues on appeal. DISCUSSION On April 4, 2023, we notified defendant: (1) counsel had filed a brief indicating no arguable issues had been identified by counsel; (2) as a case arising from an order denying postconviction relief, defendant was not entitled to counsel or to an independent review of the record; and (3) in accordance with procedures set forth in People v. Delgadillo, defendant had 30 days in which to file a supplemental brief or letter raising any argument he wanted this court to consider. In addition, we notified defendant if we did not receive a letter or brief within that 30-day period, the court may dismiss the appeal as abandoned. More than 30 days have elapsed, and we have received no communication from defendant. We consider defendant’s appeal abandoned and order the appeal dismissed. (People v. Delgadillo, supra, 14 Cal.5th at p. 232.)
