of a firearm, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1). Pursuant to Anders v.
California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Guevara’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 Guevara the opportunity to file a pro se supplemental
brief. No pro se supplemental brief or answering brief has been filed.
Guevara has waived his right to appeal his conviction and 156-month
sentence. Because the record discloses no arguable issue as to the validity of the
appeal waiver, we dismiss the appeal. See United States v. Watson, 582 F.3d 974,
986-88 (9th Cir. 2009).
Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.
DISMISSED.
