THE PEOPLE, C075522
Plaintiff and Respondent, (Super. Ct. No. 62013569)
v.
DENNIS ROY PETERSON,
Defendant and Appellant.
Defendant Dennis Roy Peterson appeals from an order denying a petition to recall
his so-called “three strikes” sentence of 25 years to life, brought pursuant to the
provisions of the Three Strikes Reform Act of 2012 (the Act), codified at Penal Code
section 1170.126.1 (See Teal v. Superior Court (2014) 60 Cal.4th 595.)
Defendant’s petition to recall his sentence and for resentencing was denied upon
determination that he was not eligible for relief under the Act because he sustained a

prior conviction in 1975 for forcible rape and convictions in 1985 for spousal rape,
forcible sodomy, and forcible oral copulation. (See §§ 667.5, subd. (c), 1170.126,
subd. (e)(1), 1192.7, subd. (c).)
Counsel was appointed to represent defendant on appeal. Counsel filed an
opening brief setting forth the facts of the case and requesting this court to review the
record and determine whether there are any arguable issues on appeal. (People v. Wende
(1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.) Counsel advised defendant of his right to file a supplemental
brief within 30 days of the date of filing of the opening brief. More than 30 days elapsed,
and we received no communication from defendant. Having undertaken an examination
of the entire record, we find no arguable error that would result in a disposition more
favorable to defendant.
DISPOSITION
The judgment (order) is affirmed.
