Abascal

MEMORANDUM **

Maria Mercardo Abascal appeals her conviction by guilty plea and sentence for being an illegal alien found in the United States following deportation and conviction, in violation of 8 U.S.C. § 1326 (a) and (b)(2). Abascal’s attorney has filed a brief pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738 , 87 S.Ct. 1396 , 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), and a motion to withdraw based on counsel’s failure to discover arguable issues for review. Abascal did not file a pro se supplemental brief. Our independent review of the record pursuant to Penson v. Ohio, 488 U.S. 75, 83-84 , 109 S.Ct. 346 , 102 L.Ed.2d 300 (1988), discloses no arguable issues. We therefore GRANT counsel’s motion to withdraw and AFFIRM the district court’s judgment.

We REMAND for the district court to correct the judgment to exclude the reference to 8 U.S.C. § 1326 (b)(2), consistent with United States v. Rivera-Sanchez, 222 F.3d 1057 (9th Cir.2000). See United States v. Herrera-Bianco, 232 F.3d 715, 719 (9th Cir.2000) (remanding sua sponte to delete the reference to § 1326(b)).
