2 18-10477 & 18-10478
386 U.S. 738 (1967), Gomez-Robles’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 Gomez-Robles the opportunity to file a pro se supplemental
brief. No pro se supplemental brief or answering brief has been filed.
Gomez-Robles waived his right to appeal his conviction, the revocation of
supervised release, and his sentences. 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 waivers. See United States v. Watson, 582 F.3d 974, 986-88
(9th Cir. 2009). We accordingly dismiss these appeals. See id. at 988.
Appellee’s motion for leave to file its late letter is GRANTED.
Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.
DISMISSED.
