IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA

SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT

DIVISION ONE

THE PEOPLE,

Plaintiff and Respondent,

v.

LEO JEROME JOHNSON,

Defendant and Appellant.

B296406

(Los Angeles County

Super. Ct. No. MA061235)

APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of Los Angeles County, Daviann L. Mitchell, Judge. Affirmed.

Robert Booher, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant.

No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent.

____________________________

Jurors convicted defendant Leo Jerome Johnson of two counts of second-degree murder each with a firearm enhancement. We affirmed defendant’s convictions (People v. Johnson (Dec. 3, 2018, B280365) [nonpub. opn.]), but remanded the matter so that the trial court could exercise discretion granted under recent amendments to Penal Code section 12022.53 to strike the firearm enhancements in the interests of justice. Upon remand, defendant moved to strike the firearm enhancements, which the People opposed. The trial court denied the motion, and defendant appealed.

After examining the record, counsel filed a Wende brief raising no issues on appeal and requesting that we independently review the record. (People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.) Defendant 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 defendant’s attorney has complied with his responsibilities and that no arguable issue exists. (People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, 110–111; People v. Wende, supra, 25 Cal.3d at p. 441; see also Smith v. Robbins (2000) 528 U.S. 259, 278.)
