Lead Opinion
MEMORANDUM *
Victor Jango appeals the 24-month sentence imposed following his guilty plea conviction for conspiracy and money laundering, in violation of 18 U.S.C. §§ 871 and 1956(h), respectively. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 . Jango’s appellate counsel has filed a motion to withdraw as counsel and a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 , 87 S.Ct. 1396 , 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), stating that there are no arguable issues for review.
Jango has filed a pro se supplemental brief, in which he contends that he was denied the right of allocution at sentencing. Our review of the record, however, reveals that Jango did have the opportunity to personally address the court, and therefore, no error resulted.
Having conducted an independent review of the record as required by Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 82-83 , 109 S.Ct. 346 , 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988), we conclude that there are no arguable issues for review. Accordingly, counsel’s motion to withdraw is GRANTED, and the district court’s judgment is AFFIRMED.
