FILED NOT FOR PUBLICATION JUN 04 2010 MOLLY C. DWYER, CLERK UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS U .S. C O U R T OF APPE ALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, No. 09-50278 Plaintiff - Appellee, D.C. No. 2:08-cr-00910-GAF-1 v. MEMORANDUM * DAVID AVILES-PADILLA, Defendant - Appellant. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Central District of California Gary A. Feess, District Judge, Presiding Submitted May 25, 2010 ** Before: CANBY, THOMAS, and W. FLETCHER, Circuit Judges. David Aviles-Padilla appeals from his guilty-plea conviction and 51-month sentence imposed for being an illegal alien found in the United States following deportation, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We affirm, but remand to correct the judgment. * This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by 9th Cir. R. 36-3. ** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2). Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Aviles-Padilla’s counsel has filed a brief stating there are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. We have provided the appellant the opportunity to file a pro se supplemental brief. No pro se supplemental brief or answering brief has been filed. Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 80-81 (1988), discloses no arguable grounds for relief on direct appeal. In accordance with United States v. Rivera-Sanchez, 222 F.3d 1057, 1062 (9th Cir. 2000), we remand the case to the district court with instructions that it delete from the judgment the incorrect reference to § 1326(b). See United States v. Herrera-Blanco, 232 F.3d 715, 719 (9th Cir. 2000) (remanding sua sponte to delete the reference to § 1326(b)). Accordingly, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, all pending motions are DENIED, the district court’s judgment is AFFIRMED, and the case is REMANDED. 2 09-50278
