13-10033
Jorge Robles-Retiz appeals from the district court’s judgment and
challenges his guilty-plea conviction and 36-month sentence for reentry of a
removed alien, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326. Pursuant to Anders v. California,
386 U.S. 738 (1967), Robles-Retiz’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 Robles-Retiz the opportunity to file a pro se supplemental brief. No
pro se supplemental brief or answering brief has been filed.
Robles-Retiz 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.
