Disposition notice
The Fourth District Court of Appeal, Division Two, affirmed the judgments against Steven Todd Baker in three Riverside County cases. Baker admitted violating probation in case No. BAF2000516, pleaded guilty to unlawful possession of ammunition in case No. FESW2500366, and pleaded guilty to receiving stolen property in case No. FESW2500172. The court sentenced him to the previously suspended 16-year prison term in BAF2000516 and concurrent two-year terms in the other two cases. Defense counsel's requests for certificates of probable cause in all three cases were denied. Appointed counsel filed a brief under People v. Wende and Anders v. California identifying two potentially arguable issues concerning whether the trial court could impose the 10-year upper term on a gun enhancement without aggravating circumstances and whether any error was forfeited or prejudicial. Baker declined to file a personal supplemental brief. The court independently reviewed the record under People v. Kelly and found no arguable issues, affirming the judgments.
