IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA

SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT

DIVISION ONE

In re I.N., a Person Coming B348051 Under the Juvenile Court Law. (Los Angeles County Super. Ct. No. EL1821A)

THE PEOPLE,

Plaintiff and Respondent, v. I.N., Defendant and Appellant.

APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County, Robert J. Totten, Judge Pro Tempore. Affirmed. Laura Arnold, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant. No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent. ____________________________ I.N., a minor, appeals from a judgment finding true that he possessed a loaded handgun and resisted arrest, and declaring him a ward of the juvenile court. Appointed appellate counsel has filed a no-issue brief pursuant to People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436 (Wende). We have independently examined the record, and affirm.

FACTUAL BACKGROUND Police stopped a vehicle that was not displaying a license plate. After the vehicle stopped, an officer noticed the vehicle ignition had been damaged, which in his training and experience suggested the vehicle might be stolen. The police directed the driver and passengers to get out of the vehicle. As the passenger sitting in the middle back seat got out, he fled from the officers. At trial, an officer identified the fleeing passenger as I.N. The officers chased I.N. and brought him to the ground. As they rolled him over, they saw a firearm underneath I.N. The firearm was loaded and in working order.

PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND The district attorney filed a petition under Welfare and Institutions Code section 602 alleging I.N. committed the crimes of carrying a loaded handgun (Pen. Code, § 25850, subd. (a)) and resisting a peace officer (id., § 148, subd. (a)(1)). Following trial, the juvenile court found both counts true, and declared the firearm charge a felony and the resisting charge a misdemeanor. The juvenile court declared I.N. a ward of the court and placed him on probation in the home of his adoptive parents. I.N. timely appealed.

2 DISCUSSION Appointed appellate counsel has filed a brief pursuant to Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d 436, identifying no issues and requesting this court to review the record and determine whether any arguable issue exists on appeal. I.N. was advised by this court of the opportunity to file a supplemental brief; he filed no brief. We have examined the entire record and are satisfied that counsel has complied with counsel’s responsibilities and that no arguable issue exists. (People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, 110–111; Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d at p. 441.)

DISPOSITION The judgment is affirmed. NOT TO BE PUBLISHED.
