UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. SANTOS LOPEZ, Defendant-Appellant.
NOT FOR PUBLICATION
D.C. No. 3:17-cr-00093-TMB-1 MEMORANDUM Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Alaska
Timothy M. Burgess, District Judge, Presiding Before: SCHROEDER, SILVERMAN, and CLIFTON, Circuit Judges.
This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3.
Santos Lopez appeals from the district court's judgment and challenges his guilty-plea convictions and 46-month concurrent sentences for four counts of drug distribution, in violation of 21 U.S.C. § 841(a)(1), (b)(1)(B). Pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 (1967), Lopez'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 Lopez 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.
