UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. SYLVIA FLORES, Defendant-Appellant.


NOT FOR PUBLICATION

D.C. No. 4:16-cr-00990-RM MEMORANDUM Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Arizona
Rosemary Márquez, District Judge, Presiding Before: SILVERMAN, GRABER, and GOULD, Circuit Judges.

This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.

Sylvia Flores appeals from the district court's judgment and challenges her jury-trial convictions and 60-month concurrent sentences for possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine and heroin, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1) and (b)(1)(C); and importation of methamphetamine and heroin, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 952(a), 960(a)(1), and 960(b)(3). Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Flores'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 Flores 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 (1988), discloses no arguable grounds for relief on direct appeal.

Counsel's motion to withdraw is GRANTED.

AFFIRMED.
