* Before Levy, Acting P.J., Detjen, J., and Peña, J.
Appointed counsel for defendant Marty Curtis McClintock asked this court to
review the record to determine whether there are any arguable issues on appeal.
(People v. Wende (1979) 25 Cal.3d 436.) Counsel filed an opening brief that sets forth
the facts of the case. Defendant was advised 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. Finding no arguable error that would
result in a disposition more favorable to defendant, we affirm.
We provide the following brief description of the facts and procedural history of
the case. (See People v. Kelly (2006) 40 Cal.4th 106, 110, 124.)
In 2004, defendant burglarized his father’s house. He was charged with first
degree residential burglary (Pen. Code, §§ 459, 460, subd. (a)),1 but he pled guilty to the
lesser charge of second degree burglary (§§ 459, 460, subd. (b)). The trial court granted
him two years’ formal probation with 180 days of jail time.
On June 23, 2015, defendant filed an application for resentencing pursuant to
Proposition 47, the Safe Neighborhoods and Schools Act (§ 1170.18), requesting that the
trial court reduce his felony conviction for second degree burglary to a misdemeanor.
On July 6, 2015, the trial court denied the application because defendant’s
conviction did not qualify for resentencing under Proposition 47. On July 10, 2015,
defendant filed a notice of appeal.
DISCUSSION
On November 4, 2014, California voters enacted Proposition 47, and it went into
effect the next day. (People v. Rivera (2015) 233 Cal.App.4th 1085, 1089.)
“Proposition 47 makes certain drug- and theft-related offenses misdemeanors, unless the
offenses were committed by certain ineligible defendants. These offenses had previously

been designated as either felonies or wobblers (crimes that can be punished as either
felonies or misdemeanors).” (Id. at p. 1091.)
“Proposition 47 also created a new resentencing provision: section 1170.18.
Under section 1170.18, a person ‘currently serving’ a felony sentence for an offense that
is now a misdemeanor under Proposition 47, may petition for a recall of that sentence and
request resentencing in accordance with the statutes that were added or amended by
Proposition 47. (§ 1170.18, subd. (a).)” (People v. Rivera, supra, 233 Cal.App.4th at
p. 1092.) “Section 1170.18 also provides that persons who have completed felony
sentences for offenses that would now be misdemeanors under Proposition 47 may file an
application with the trial court to have their felony convictions ‘designated as
misdemeanors.’ (§ 1170.18, subd. (f); see id., subds. (g)-(h).)” (Id. at p. 1093.)
Residential burglary is not among the offenses listed in section 1170.18. Thus,
defendant is not eligible for relief under Proposition 47. The trial court properly denied
his application for resentencing.
We see no other arguable error that would result in a disposition more favorable to
defendant.
DISPOSITION
The order denying defendant’s application for resentencing pursuant to
Proposition 47 is affirmed.
