MEMORANDUM *
MANUELA GONZALEZ-GONZALEZ,
Defendant - Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court
for the District of Arizona
Susan R. Bolton, District Judge, Presiding
Submitted June 10, 2013 **
Before: HAWKINS, McKEOWN, and BERZON, Circuit Judges.
Manuela Gonzalez-Gonzalez appeals from the district court’s judgment and
challenges her guilty-plea conviction and 41-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), Gonzalez-Gonzalez’s counsel has filed a brief stating that
*
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).
there are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of
record. We have provided Gonzalez-Gonzalez the opportunity to file a pro se
supplemental brief. No pro se supplemental brief or answering brief has been
filed.
Gonzalez-Gonzalez has waived her right to appeal her 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).
Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.
AFFIRMED.
