IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA
SECOND APPELLATE DISTRICT
DIVISION FIVE
THE PEOPLE, B268122
Plaintiff and Respondent, (Los Angeles County Super. Ct. No. BA180270) v.
DARNELL DAVONE WALKER,
Defendant and Appellant.
APPEAL from an order of the Superior Court of Los Angeles, Morris B. Jones, Judge. Dismissed. Paul R. Kleven, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant. Steven Mercer, Deputy Attorney General, for Plaintiff and Respondent.
— 2 —
Defendant, Darnel Davone Walker, appeals from an order denying his motion to modify the judgment. We previously affirmed the judgment. (People v. Walker (Feb. 15, 2001, B137988) [nonpub. opn.].) Defendant seeks to modify the judgment to convert certain fines into days of custody. We recognized that an order denying such a motion may not be appealable. We have a duty to raise issues concerning our jurisdiction on our own motion. (Jennings v. Marralle (1994) 8 Cal.4th 121, 126; Olson v. Cory (1983) 35 Cal.3d 390, 398.) We thus issued an order to show cause and placed the matter on calendar. The denial of a motion to modify the judgment is ordinarily nonappealable. (People v. Mendez (2012) 209 Cal.App.4th 32, 34, fn. 1; People v. Cantrell (1961) 197 Cal.App.2d 40, 43.) Thus, we have no jurisdiction over defendant’s purported appeal. (In re Mario C. (2004) 124 Cal.App.4th 1303, 1307 [“a reviewing court is ‘without jurisdiction to consider an appeal from a nonappealable order, and has the duty to dismiss such an appeal upon its own motion’”]; People v. Benavides (2002) 99 Cal.App.4th 100, 103 [“We dismiss the appeal as taken from a nonappealable order.”].) The appeal is dismissed. NOT TO BE PUBLISHED IN THE OFFICIAL REPORTS
