(1967), Manjarrez-Cardenas’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 Manjarrez-Cardenas 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. We
dismiss in light of the valid appeal waiver. See United States v. Watson, 582 F.3d
974, 988 (9th Cir. 2009).
Counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED.
DISMISSED.
