deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386
U.S. 738 (1967), Acevedo-Vazquez’s counsel has filed a brief stating that there are
no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. We
have provided Acevedo-Vazquez the opportunity to file a pro se supplemental
brief. No pro se supplemental brief or answering brief has been filed.
Acevedo-Vazquez has waived his right to appeal his conviction and
sentence. Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488
U.S. 75, 80 (1988), discloses no arguable issue as to the validity of the waiver. See
United States v. Watson, 582 F.3d 974, 986-88 (9th Cir. 2009). We accordingly
dismiss the appeal. See id. at 988.
Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.
DISMISSED.
