***
The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision
without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Martinez-Encinas’s counsel has filed a brief
stating that there are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as
counsel of record. Martinez-Encinas has filed a pro se supplemental brief. The
government has not filed an answering brief.
Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S.
75, 80 (1988), discloses no arguable grounds for relief on direct appeal.
Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.
The government’s motion to dismiss this appeal is DENIED.
AFFIRMED.
