Defendant and Appellant.

Jockaine Lamonte Wadsworth pled no contest to second degree murder (Pen. Code, 1 § 187, subd. (a)), admitted he used a firearm in committing the crime (§ 12022.5, subd.

Cameras on the 1 All statutory references are to the Penal Code. apartment building showed Wadsworth entering the apartment building and leaving with a shotgun. He got into the victim’s car and drove away. The shotgun was later found in the trunk of the car. Wadsworth appeals the sentences. We appointed counsel to represent Wadsworth in this appeal. After examining the record, he filed a brief raising no issues. On July 22, 2025, we advised Wadsworth by mail that he had 30 days within which to personally submit any contentions or issues that he wished to raise on appeal. We received no reply. We have reviewed the entire record and are satisfied that Wadsworth’s attorney has fully complied with his responsibilities and that no arguable issue exists. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436, 441.) The judgment is affirmed. NOT TO BE PUBLISHED.
