Felipe Fernando Fava-Corella appeals from his 84-month sentence for being
a deported alien found in the United States, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326.

as counsel of record. We have provided the appellant with the opportunity to file a
pro se supplemental brief. He has filed a supplemental brief and an answering
brief has been filed.
The Government’s motion to supplement the record pursuant to Rule 10(e)
of the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure is denied. See United States v.
Garcia, 997 F.2d 1273, 1278 (9th Cir. 1993).
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.
We remand to the district court for the limited purpose of correcting the
judgment to reflect that Fava-Corella pled guilty to the indictment, not an
information, and that he pled guilty to being a deported alien found in the United
States, not attempted entry after deportation.
Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, the district court’s judgment
is AFFIRMED, and the case is REMANDED with instructions to correct the
judgment.
