IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
FOURTH APPELLATE DISTRICT
DIVISION TWO
THE PEOPLE,
Plaintiff and Respondent, E058354
v. (Super.Ct.No. FSB041285)
GILBERT EUGENE DAVIDSON, OPINION
Defendant and Appellant.
APPEAL from the Superior Court of San Bernardino County. Michael A. Smith,
Judge. (Retired judge of the San Bernardino Super. Ct. assigned by the Chief Justice
pursuant to art. VI, § 6 of the Cal. Const.) Affirmed.
Patrick E. DuNah, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and
Appellant.
No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent.
Defendant and appellant Gilbert Eugene Davidson appeals after the trial court
denied his petition for resentencing under Penal Code section 1170.126, known as the
1
Three Strikes Reform Act of 2012 (Prop. 36, as approved by voters, Gen. Elec. (Nov. 7,
2012)).1 Defendant filed a notice of appeal on March 13, 2013. We affirm.
PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND
On June 6, 2006, defendant was convicted of first degree burglary. (§ 459.) The
trial court found that defendant had two strike priors. (§§ 1170.12, subds. (a)-(d) & 667,
subds. (b)-(i).) On January 8, 2007, the court sentenced him to state prison for 25 years
to life.
On February 11, 2013, defendant filed an in pro. per. petition for resentencing
under section 1170.126. The court denied the petition since defendant’s current
conviction was for a serious offense, which made him ineligible for resentencing under
section 1170.126. (§ 1170.126, subd. (e)(1).)
ANALYSIS
After the notice of appeal was filed, this court appointed counsel to represent
defendant. Counsel has filed a brief under the authority of People v. Wende (1979) 25
Cal.3d 436 and Anders v. California (1967) 386 U.S. 738 [87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d
493], setting forth a statement of the case, a brief statement of the facts, and identifying
one potential arguable issue: whether the trial court erred in denying defendant’s petition
for resentencing under section 1170.126.
1 All further statutory references will be to the Penal Code, unless otherwise
noted.
2
Defendant was offered an opportunity to file a personal supplemental brief, which
he has not done. Under People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, we have conducted an
independent review of the record and find no arguable issues.
DISPOSITION
The judgment is affirmed.
