No appearance for Plaintiff and Respondent.
1
Defendant and appellant Michelle Yvonne Yost was charged by felony complaint
with corporal injury to a spouse/cohabitant. (Pen. Code,1 § 273.5, subd. (a), count 1.) On
August 5, 2013, she entered a plea agreement and pled guilty. In accordance with the
plea agreement, the court placed her on probation for a period of 36 months under
specified terms. On August 20, 2013, a petition to revoke defendant’s probation was
filed, alleging that she was found at the victim’s residence and refused to leave, despite
knowing there was a restraining order. The petition also alleged that defendant failed to
report to her probation officer as ordered, and that she failed to comply with her
probation officer’s reasonable directives. On October 22, 2013, the court found
defendant mentally incompetent, and it suspended the criminal proceedings. The court
ordered her to be placed in a recovery program for 90 days. The court subsequently
found her competent and reinstated the proceedings. At that time, defendant admitted the
allegation that she disobeyed the court restraining order. The court reinstated her on
probation. Thereafter, a second petition to revoke defendant’s probation was filed,
alleging that she failed to report to her probation officer as ordered and failed to follow
all reasonable directives. A probation revocation hearing was held, after which the court
found her in violation of her probation, revoked probation, and sentenced her to three
years in state prison.
Defendant filed a timely notice of appeal. We affirm.

PROCEDURAL BACKGROUND
It was alleged that defendant violated her probation by failing to report to her
probation officer as ordered and failing to follow all reasonable directives of the
probation officer. A probation violation hearing was held on August 19, 2014.
Defendant’s probation officer testified that defendant was released from custody after her
last violation on February 18, 2014, and that she had not reported to probation since then.
The records indicated that she did not report until she was arrested on a bench warrant
that was issued on March 20, 2014. He also testified that she had not complied with any
terms of her probation.
DISCUSSION
Defendant appealed and, upon her request, this court appointed counsel to
represent her. 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, setting forth a statement of the
case and no arguable issues. Counsel has also requested this court to undertake a review
of the entire record.
We offered defendant an opportunity to file a personal supplemental brief, which
she has not done.
Pursuant to the mandate of People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, we have
conducted an independent review of the record and find no arguable issues.
