IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA

SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT

DIVISION SIX

THE PEOPLE, 2d Crim. No. B319194 (Super. Ct. No. 2021031134) Plaintiff and Respondent, (Ventura County)

v.

ROBERT THOMAS RAY,

Defendant and Appellant.

Robert Thomas Ray appeals from the judgment entered after he pled guilty to inflicting corporal injury on his girlfriend. (Pen. Code, § 273.5, subd. (a).) His notice of appeal asserts sentencing error and does not affect the validity of the plea. (Pen. Code, § 1237.5; Cal. Rules of Court, rule 8.304, subd. (b).) We appointed counsel to represent appellant in this appeal. After an examination of the record, counsel filed an opening brief that raises no arguable issues. On June 9, 2022, we notified appellant by mail that he had 30 days within which to personally submit any contentions or issues he wished us to consider. The 30 days have since passed, and appellant has not presented any contentions or issues for our consideration. In December 2021, during a domestic dispute, appellant grabbed his girlfriend by the throat with both hands and threw her to the ground. Appellant pled guilty to the inflicting injury charge and was sentenced to two years in state prison, with presentence credits of 100 days. We have reviewed the entire record and are satisfied that appellant’s attorney fully complied with his responsibilities and that no arguable issue exists. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.) DISPOSITION The judgment is affirmed. NOT TO BE PUBLISHED.
