Before: GOODWIN, WALLACE, and McKEOWN, Circuit Judges.

Virgil Edward Grant, III, appeals from his guilty-plea conviction and 72-month sentence for conspiracy to distribute 100 or more kilograms of marijuana, in violation of 21 U.S.C. §§ 841(a)(1), 846. Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Grant's counsel has filed a brief stating there are no grounds for relief, along with a motion to withdraw as counsel of record. We have provided appellant 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, 80-81 (1988), discloses no arguable grounds for relief on direct appeal.

Accordingly, counsel's motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and the district court's judgment is AFFIRMED.
